Soup to Nuts in Florida aka Beach Lovelies





Zero lots at Alys Beach, most with private courtyards pictured above, and just steps away from Gulf. With the Panama City Beach Airport planned in the near future - this latest "New Urbanist" community shouldn't have any trouble filling up the remaining lots with hungry homebuilders, eager for a pedestrian friendly enclave.

Bottom three images: New Urbanist townhouse and condo community Miami Beach Allison Island. I like the multiple concave mirrors against the one painted accent wall with the collection of occassional tables that look like they might double as seating.

Sorry for the terrible quality of these pictures - my scanner is acting up.

Wondrous Redd - Miles Redd that is





The French Do It Better


The time has come that 'eat your veggies' has become supplanted with 'grow your own'.
And what a wonderful way to do it with these French made growing bags. This way the growing compound can be monitored and no pesky underground creatures (like moles) can dig their way in.
Can't find the purchasing information; will keep looking.
