Beautiful weather at last!

I fertilized and weeded my flower garden and Jan finally came around to build us a new staircase.

It took him two days …

The wood is oak and comes of a tree in our yard what came down during a big storm 3 years ago

With dowels made of dark oak.

In the meantime our 20-year-old cat is thinking, “there used to be a staircase in this spot … where did it go?”

    How special that the staircase is made of your own oak! The dowels make me think of the confetti in your brooch. Nice detail!

    I agree with Erica – very special.

    Great photo of your cat!

    That’s right Erica, same technique too!

    And Lois, the cat is always upstairs, I don’t know how she did it but suddenly she was on top of this wobbly ladder …
