Launching August One-a-Day

It's August again and that means it's time for the August One-A-Day photo challenge. This year I'm doing it here on my blog rather than at Flickr, but feel free to join in over in our Flickr group which has been hanging around since last year.

I'm going to try not to do self-portraits for this challenge since I do a daily self-portrait anyone, but I'm not promising anything. I took this shot just before bed after my morning in the UK (breakfast with friends!) and 12 hrs on the plane (if you include the time we sat on the runway) and dinner at... oh my, where did we have dinner? I'm getting forgetful as I get more and more tired (dinner @ cesar on Shattuck).

Sale Pending

Front of house

We finally heard back from the seller -- and it seems we did get the house. Just spoke to our real estate agent, and he has all the paperwork, so we are good to go! W00t! So, after dinner I stopped by the house. Can't be inside yet, but I took some pictures outside. This is a picture of the front of the house -- the garage is on the left (by the fence) and the house is on the right. The house isn't very exciting from the front, but at least there's a nice front yard.

 Back of house

This is the back yard of the new house. I didn't take this picture but I do think it's a better view of the back that the one I took walking around in the yard. From this side you can see the first floor (walk out basement), the main floor and deck, and the loft.

Relaunching devBear.com

devBear.com is back. Not that I ever really went away, but I certainly haven't been posting much lately. I've revamped the site slightly. Mostly, I got rid of the separate "consumable Joy" and "intermittent Knitter" blogs and blended them in here. That's to give me less to worry about updating, and everyone else one place to find everything. Plus this format encourages short, frequent posting. So stay tuned.
