Green

Nah, our house isn’t gonna be green, at least not visually. Those green boards that the builders used to wrap the whole house are called RAB boards. Since we’re located at a high-wind zone, the local council required us to use these fibre cement boards instead of simple (and cheap) building paper. Good we decided for another cladding color. :)

But wait, there is another thing that’s going green as we speak. One of our three almond trees has decided winter is over and started flowering like hell. At that time of the year with frosts at night and considering it is freshly planted, shouldn’t it rather try to just … survive?

Spring has sprung!
