We have family and friends in the D.C. area and in throughout Virginia too. The landscapes there seem to be a lot like the countryside here in the Northwest (Oregon) area.

This is awesome. Virginia really has virgin landscapes. I wish I could get there with my soulmate someday haha. We have the same pristine lifestyle at the countryside back here in Romania. Thank you for this beautiful read.

So does AutoCAD 2012, useful if you need Rhino solids with planar faces to go into AutoCAD as AutoCAD 3DSolids that can be edited in AutoCAD with solid edit tools (if you export from Rhino to DWG, the solids go into AutoCAD as solids composed of surfaces, rather than solids composed of Regions - they look fine and you can do booleans but can't move faces, etc or use dynamic UCS).

Oh my goodness. You're totally right Dawn. The concept of having a pool right on the edge of a forest! Beautiful. I wish I lived somewhere that had a forest so I could use these swimming pool designs. But, alas, Arizona is rather bleak.

The photo you posted is so worth to be on a post card! I really admire the colors of the flowers. It all blended exquisitely. Keep it up!

Your story brought back many memories of childhood picnics with family and friends in the foothills above Colorado Springs. Dining al fresco as a memory maker--great point!

Ahh, the places that love will take us! Your experiences sound similar to some of those of my past, and you thoughts on the "atmosphere with friends and family enjoying the good times and what life has to offer", are words of wisdom for us all. Great post!

2010-11-24T12:42:06.689-05:00

Susan, the thought that you and Shirley both expressed, that dining alfresco is the great equalizer, is wonderful. That's absolutely true that even a simple experience has all the good feelings and memories as a luxuriant one with china and crystal!

Thanks for all your lovely comments! What a variety of dining al fresco thoughts and designs among us all.

You are correct!
Memories are the best take aways from our outdoor dining and other adventures.

Susan, It sounds like a wonderful party. Some of my favorite dining al fresco memories are about roasting marshmallows lakeside as a child. Not a real meal but certainly full of fond memories of friends & family.

What a wonderful story. When all is said and done it's all about the company and conversation anyway!

Always look for a licensed landscaper. If they have their own equipment the better - renting the bucket truck can cost you more in the end.

I really enjoyed reading your blog Susan and I look forward to learn more about landscaping. I'm fascinated to know that there are deer resistant plants! I love the photo you posted on this blog too..your landscaping makes a home very inviting and pleasing to the eyes.

Landscape Design is popular for those small backyards or frontyard. The landscaping needs to be properly planned for these small places, as they can be more challenging! Good topic for discussion.

The perspective already looks good as it is. And true, it really is a matter of scale when we talk about entry gates. I am learning from your blog. Keep posting please!

You offer some valuable advice regarding small spaces. It is indeed like a private retreat.
