And, also to answer a question that was posted at the top by Raspberry Hill Crafts, I finally asked my husband what brand the power washer is, and it's a gas-powered MTD brand. He loves it. A regular electric power washer might be fine for a ranch or another style of single story home, but this old house is tall and sits on a high foundation, so the power of the combustion engine really helps reach like we need to!<br /><br />Thanks for reading and all of your kind comments!<br />xoxo<br />JoniOld Centennial Farmhousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16865061855481840216noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606161041749648789.post-16149211465666886802011-08-11T13:04:23.081-04:002011-08-11T13:04:23.081-04:00I love your house!I love your house!Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00066388901031637983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606161041749648789.post-71183696065810889892011-08-11T12:35:35.960-04:002011-08-11T12:35:35.960-04:00What a beautiful choice!!!

Our house is pale gray with green shutters, white trim. I am trying to talk him into a green roof! Yeah for you!<br /><br />The Help - Oh please do see the <br />movie after you have finished the book. The subtleties of the characters words and actions are so powerful, you will still be replaying the scenes over in your mind already planning to go again! The comedic jestures are in keeping with each character just as they are in the book and add wonderfully to filling out each character. Please let me know what you think!

Our little house was part of the post-WW2 housing boom -- all little bungalows on huge lots (so we could add on when we outgrew the house) and they were all white with colored roofs and shutters. Ours was a white house with royal blue shutters and a blue roof. My mom even planted a red geranium by the little front porch!I loved that little house and every time I visit your page and see your house I think of mine and it makes me smile.Boyett-Brinkleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02066753762645278933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606161041749648789.post-13456844020321277102011-08-09T16:04:08.841-04:002011-08-09T16:04:08.841-04:00Your house is my inspiration.

I like it because it gets a lot of spider webs off the house that seem to collect in all the nooks and crannies. <br /><br />I love your blue roof too, by the way!
