(DONE) VA Beach Graduation Party (6/25/11)
Strange People gathered in VA Beach to celebrate Matthew's high school graduation. Peter and Cathy put us up the night before. Much appreciated. We arrived late Friday night and left around 5 on Saturday. The drive home took 4:15 min, thankfully a LOT shorter than the drive down.
-
The left side of the front of the house. This is where Mystery Plants got its start.
-
In the morning Sat. 6/25/11 - Kevin and Peter enjoying a chat.
-
The man of the hour, Matthew.
-
Top right is Peter looking for the screws to the camera. Bottom left, it's fuzzy, but I had to have a picture of a man ironing. They come few and far between.
-
Jonathan - Capable of focus and concentration and it shows here as steely-eyed determination. :o)
-
The BBQ was almost over when I remembered I had a camera. Here the cook is enjoying some of his company.
-
Ralph, Debbie, and Kevin
-
The party is winding down and Cathy is saying goodbye to a couple more folks.
-
Saying our last goodbyes to Matthew and Jonathan.
-
The house is U shaped and the deck fills in the space in between. The family room is at the back of the house at the right tip of the U. It's been finished for some time now - the room not the U.
-
Next to the living room - The kitchen seems huge without a table. I'll have to get the bird's names. The garage is to the right and is accessed from the kitchen.
-
Up from the kitchen towards the front of the house. To my immediate right is the patio door to the deck. Up ahead on the right is the opening into the living room.
-
The spacious living room. Peter tore down walls and Cathy gave up TWO closets to make this room a reality.
-
Standing at the edge of the living room and looking at the front door we're at the bottom of the U.
-
Standing in the same place, down on my left is this pretty collage of flowers and a guitar.
-
Still standing at the edge of the living room and looking right.
-
At the end of the hall and looking down the last leg of the U. Here is another bedroom on the left and straight ahead the master suite.
-
Outside at the front to the left of the driveway is the mailbox with a hanging basket.
-
The deep border to the right of the house and driveway is looking fabulous.
-
Walking down the drive and through the gate brings you to the back yard.
-
Walking along the back border, I spot this little guy sitting on a hibiscus leaf.
-
This is about the last third of the back border.
-
At the end of the back border is what Cathy calls her problem area.
-
Looking outside from the kitchen are these great doors to the deck. There's a couple of surprises out there.
-
More greenery along the edge
-
A pond with a neat waterfall and everywhere lush green.
-
Peter and Cathy say they had dogs last time I was down.
