Rub a Dub Dub



Six weeks ago I had no clue how we were going to reuse an entire house. Particularly the old tub. All we kept doing was shuffling it around, out of the way for construction. I am happy to annouce we have a solution. Christine Ellis and Carolyn Gregg, my Landscape Designers came up with the idea of an outside dog wash. Owning a 70 lb. dog named Blue, I was thrilled with the idea. Wait until it's complete. It's going to blow your socks off!

Green Thumbs!




Meet Christine Ellis and Carolyn Gregg, owners of Gregg and Ellis Landscape and Designs. I am beyond lucky to have these two top notch talented women represent the R.E.X. Project as my landscape designers. They dove in head first helping me cut the beast (former laurel hedge) down to size. It's new purpose will become baluster railings, fencing, and garden furniture. Any woman who doesn't complain about breaking a nail is a friend of mine!

REX Project Storage issues



My eyes were bigger than my site lot. The Rebuilding Center quickly filled the 27' long container with doors, windows, cabinetry, and salvaged wood. I thought that would be enough space to store a house...but nooooo. Had to rent another container. Next one, 17'long and true to the first, full in one day. A live and learn moment.
