I'm a little slow at getting this blog initially setup so this first entry will have quite a few days worth of photo's. From here on out I hope to update the blog each day that there is progress so check back often.
I suppose I should also explain the name of the observatory to anyone that might not know how it came about. As those of you that have visited our house know we have a wolf engraving above the fireplace. When we purchased our house Grace really did not like the wolves and considered having it removed. Over time she has gotten used to the engraving but the running joke has been that I was going to decorate the house with numerous wolf items. With the observatory I will be able to decorate however I like so it will become my "haven" to store those wolf items.
