...all through the town.

The wheels on our car went round and round earlier today as we drove up and down the streets of Eureka looking at house colors and taking pictures. Ava slept through most of the outing, luckily. If the sun is shining in some of these pics, it's because they were taken at an earlier date. It rained most of the day today, but that means we didn't have the bright sun and dark shadows to contend with while taking the pictures... just raindrops. Here are the highlights. We'll be messing around in Photoshop to play with these colors on our house before we settle on anything.



I love the Japanese Maple in this front yard.



I think some really cool people must live in this cute house. :)

It's hard to tell from this picture, but the trim on this house is really a very muted purple.

We both really liked this one... We'll have to see how it looks on our house.

I'm not so sure about this one, but Andy liked it. We've decided that many of the color combinations we saw in town wouldn't work on our house, which is more our in the open.



I've liked this house for a long time, but always found it funny that the chimney doesn't continue past the roof.



Adam had us drive by this one the other night to look at its corbels (the faux beam extensions that are a Craftsman style hallmark.) Turned out the colors were pretty nice, too.
