Looking east over the Bolinas Marina.

Looking west toward Cowell along the inland waterway.
When I first visited Bodega with Salazar Jack, my draw distance was at a minimum setting, and I fell in love with what seemed to be a quiet riverine valley. When I returned to build, I discovered to my surprise that my lovely mountain view is really dotted with boxy builds. Ah well, being near-sighted has its advantages, and changing draw distance is more effective than a topiary screen.
Major construction is now complete, with a little texture touch-up yet to do. At least I wanted to get this much done before leaving for China; I didn't want to be a bad neighbour and leave an unsightly mess in my adopted home. The interior is cold and bare but decorating may just have to wait. I may still do a bit of landscaping just to tidy up a bit outside. That will mean terraces, because I am working with intractable granite. At least I am building on firm, igneous ground.
You are a good neighbor and you will be sorely missed while you are away.
ReplyDeleteI'll be sure to pass by while you are away and take your letters in.
ReplyDeleteI love the views you have - the twinkling sea over the marina is where I was flying my couch recently (I hope to post about that adventure soon, but in the meantime here is a link to a picture: http://www.flickr.com/photos/headburroantfarm/3334313182/
And the waterway through Davenport/Bodega is where you will often find Enjah tacking the wind in her wee Tako (http://www.flickr.com/photos/headburroantfarm/3328642875/)
