Photo Friday: The front of the outside of your dwelling space. Suggested by hellbient.
Despite the nice hillside, the area to the left, right, and behind the camera is all office buildings and parking lots. The native art next door is real, not tourist crap.
I'm hoping that this will serve as the "before" picture in a year or two when we've had the exterior stripped and re-painted. If it ends up looking anywhere as good as the houses across the street, I'll be very happy.

Summershot because I love the front yard. My door is the light brown one that you can see between two purpleish bushes underneath the cherry tree. See it? Straight ahead way over there *points*
My Brady Bunch type dwelling in yesterday's snow.Panorama, so it looks better if you click on it and make it bigger. Original size makes the flamingos show up! ≡ Click to see image ≡

The apartment we rent shares a none-too-photogenic building with a hotel, a bookshop and a pizzeria. The two arched windows at the top look out from the lounge. As you can see, the town xmas lights are still up.
Thank you all for sharing your abodes today. It feels very intimate, more so than seeing faces - the face goes with the name and it's all still on a computer. This is trippy. Very lovely places. I'm especially intrigued with initapplette's crib.
I didn't have the front handy, but depending on which direction of which street you're driving on, it could be. Of course this is a summer picture - but it's prettier then!
