The Official Three Brooks Welcoming Committee

Posted on | August 25, 2008 |

Our friends who suggested we buy the lot joined us on it for champagne to toast our ‘arrival’ in the neighbourhood. These are a few pictures from that occasion. I can already tell that we’ll love it here.

Here you can see the enormous glacier-deposited boulders that populate our property. A key selling feature for sure.

    Hey Jeff.

    I’ve been checking out your blog. Very impressive with what you are doing so far. I can’t wait to see the finished results. I live in Lake of the Woods Subdivision. Just a few houses before Paul Kundzins.

    Hope things work smoothly for you.

    Cya neighbour.
