Pillows of the Dead
John Archer 1987
Our house at Mangamahu was on the edge of a cliff high above the Whangaehu river, 50 miles down-river from where the railway line crossed it at Tangiwai. The Tangiwai disaster profoundly affected Christmas for all of us at Mangamahu.
I was twelve years old that Christmas morning
Nineteen fifty-three
And Santa had come (or dad and mum!),
What would our presents be ?
Well, my pillow case was bulging,
Full of presents, by my bed –
Then the river brought those pillows of the dead We'd just opened up our presents
When a roaring wall of mud
Poured down the gorge behind us
Tossing pillows on its flood
And a thousand shattered timbers
Painted railway carriage red
"Can we go down to the river, Mum?"
"Come inside" she said
"They're the pillows of the dead."
Dad drove off down the valley
He was gone all Christmas day
"Y' father's saving people's luggage
that the flood has swept away"
But he came home all mud and sulphur
"Don't go near the lorry-shed"
And I knew he'd brought home pillows of the dead
They brought 40 bods into our shed
I saw Dad bring in one
On the back of his five-tonner
In the blazing summer sun
Half-covered by a wool-pack
With arms and legs outspread
And I stared at that pillow of the dead
Dad drove us up the valley
To the bridge at Tangiwai
And I touched the wreckage
On the mountain-side
But I never touched the muddy mess
That had bulged inside my head
Since the day I saw that pillow of the dead
God, take away that pillow of the dead!
Give peace to us who live among the dead
Give peace to all the living and the dead
Give peace to all your living and your dead.
Give peace to all your living and your dead.
Mangamahu after the Tangiwai disaster
At 10.20 pm on Christmas Eve 1953, a lahar from Mt Ruapehu came rushing down the Whangaehu river and swept away the Tangiwai railway bridge as the Limited Express was crossing it.The engine and six carriages went into torrent, at just about the very moment as my parents were filling our pillow cases with Christmas presents.
We woke up mum and dad just before 6-o-clock on Christmas morning to show them what Father Christmas had brought us. And dad turned on his bedside radio to see how many runs Australia had scored overnight in their Test against England for the Ashes.

Instead, he heard the announcement "A passenger train has been swept away in a flood at Sulphur Creek." He and mum left us to our toys and went out and across the road to the cliff above the river. Just as they got there, they heard a great roaring. A huge wall of liquid mud, 10 feet high, swept into view.
When I joined them a few minutes later, I was struck by all the pillows being swept down by the torrent. Passengers on the Limited Express used to pay two shillings to hire a pillow, kapok filled, with a freshly washed white pillowslip on it, to make their overnight journey more comfortable. There were dozens and dozens of these white pillows floating past. But my dad had noticed that some of the 'pillows' were the naked backs of dead passengers . . .
______________________________ I have recently been talking (March 2001) to an old Mangamahu farmer who was involved in helping the police to recover the bodies which were washed 50 miles down the Whangaehu river into the papa gorges at Mangamahu.
Actually, this is a non-police story. The old police constables who came out from Wanganui that Christmas morning gave up and went back into town again after trying to get down bluffs to the first couple of bodies.

It was left solely to the young farming men of Mangamahu to recover the bodies during that first week. There were no jet boats then, no helicopters, no body bags, no rubber gloves. Apart from four good keen men from the Wellington tramping club, who turned up to help on Boxing Day, there was no outside help at all.
Near Aranui, a couple of men swam down a long stretch of river, seaching for bodies caught up in the trees. At Harris's, a couple of boys scrambled and slid down crumbling 100 foot papa bluffs, grabbing at dangling roots of kowhai trees to get to the bodies.
They carried horribly mangled bodies up out of the river trench, often by swimming, then climbing 15 feet up willow trees to bring the dangling bodies down, and then, with many of them, man-handling them straight up the papa bluffs, slung near-naked across their backs.

Many of the bodies were of young women. The first carriage to be swept into the river was apparently full of Bible School trainees.
"Almost as hard to cope with," said Reid Kellick later, "Were all the Christmas toys. All those teddy bears and koalas, soaked with mud and with their legs torn off. I couldn't get them out of my mind."
A few days later a methodical search was organised, with teams working their way along both sides of the river, from bridge to bridge. A couple of days beforehand my dad asked me to paint some signs identifying all our bridges for the outsiders who came to help in the search. "The white bridge, Cox's cage, McDonald's bridge, Mangamahu bridge, Rush Flat cage, Garland's bridge, Harris's bridge, Bakers bridge, Aranui bridge, Polson's top place."
Then, every morning after the big search, the river was searched for bodies with the aid of an Air Force life-raft. Local farmer John Polson had been a flying instructor at Ohakea during the war, and he obtained the liferaft from the air-base there. Each morning the young local men took turns to come down the river in pairs looking for the Tangiwai victims who had been buried in the mud, and who floated to the surface as their bodies swelled.
I was a 12 year old at the time, living in the middle of the Mangamahu village. My dad was the local carrier.
In the middle of the day, my dad would collect the "bods," as they were referred to, on the back of his truck and bring them to our lorry-shed, right beside our house. Over the weeks of those strange school summer holidays, they stored 40 bods in our shed. My mum and a couple of other ladies would wash the mud and blood and maggots off them and tidy them up decently.

My mum's guiding principle was 'What would people think?'. What would people think if we sent their sons and daughters back to them looking like that?
Every evening, another carrier would come out from Wanganui and take the day's collection into town on the back of his road-metal truck with raised sides, with a tarpaulin covering the truck's deck.
I never saw a policeman at Mangamahu during the whole of that period.
______________________________ The searchers at Mangamahu generally only found victims whose bodies were intact, and consequently who would float. But they also reported that they often saw viscera hooked up on the willow branches, an indication that many victims had been ripped open, and consequently remained buried in the mud.
About a year after the train disaster, the skeleton of one of these latter victims was found in the eroding mud at the river edge. The police were informed, and possibly to compensate for their absence a year earlier, came out and did a big "possible murder" investigation, making a huge fuss. All the locals were very upset by this, and a few years later when other Tangiwai bones were found, they were just quietly reburied by the river bank.
All that stuff you read in books about the Tangiwai disaster, about pulling people out of the mud at the edge of the river beside the wrecked train that night, all that was nothing to what the Mangamahu people did further down the river, for weeks on end, and which never got reported.
Those Mangamahu people were heroes.

So, Makaboo was in the Wall Street Journal. The Off Duty section. The cover actually. No big deal.
In seriousness, it was a HUGE honor to be included in the Journal's "Best in Shower" story about the ever-illusive perfect baby gift. And it was very fun to learn who of my friends reads the Journal - there were some surprises!
Check out the online version or see the print version below!
Makaboo WSJ Online Article - 6-1-13.pdf (1.68 mb)
Many of my earliest childhood memories involve being at a restaurant, a party, or even the dinner table, listening to my parents and siblings (who are 9 and 12 years older than me) and begging, repeatedly:
"Will somebody PLEASE put me to BED?!?!?"
I was never the child who wanted to stay up for one more story.
So it came as no surprise when, while snuggling with Walt over a good pre-bed book, he looked up at me, smiled and said "Nite nite".
I gladly claim full responsibility but only as it relates to my genetics, not my parenting skills. I try not to talk about his sleep habits with other parents simply because I know how good we have it. At 15 months, he still sleeps 15-17 hours a day, and "putting him to bed" in our household means placing him in his crib, turning the light out and waving goodnight.
This also means that he has never slept in our bed. Literally. The notion of him sleeping in our bed is about as preposterous as the notion of him sleeping in the third ring of a circus. To him, our bed is where the action happens. His thoughts seem to be: "Sleep?! HERE?!?! But you guys are here!"
I know we have it good. Too good. So I relish every 8-hour night of sleep I get and fully expect that some day it will change. For now, I just want Walt (and the universe that delivered me this incredible little being), to know that I could not be more grateful that he inherited my sleeping genes!

I wish my name was Carolina. Or Caroline. Instead, it's Carolyn. I go by Carole. Until I was in the 7th grade, I spelled it Carol. Then I added an 'e' — so now it's Carole. That's just a bit of trivia I thought I'd pass on…at no extra cost to you.
This past week, I relocated my daughter, Christie, to Greensboro, North Carolina. If you've never been to North Carolina, you are surely missing a treat. I think it may be the best state in the US. You've got mountains to the west…beaches to the east…and lots and lots of culture and city life in-between. Everytime I go to North Carolina, I get a "hankerin' " to relocate there.
I remember back when Christie was in middle school and high school, I'd say to her, "I hope you go to the University of North Carolina because it's a great place to live and visit." She'd blow me off like most kids do when their parents start planning their future.
But lo' and behold, this past weekend, we moved her in to her first apartment and she begins teaching at UNC-Greensboro in August as she works on her Master's degree.
I'm really proud of that little girl. Teaching college at the ripe old age of 21! She amazes me. In my opinion, she should be a poster child for children of single parents. She's really incredible.
My mother, sisters and I (and Christie) worked really hard setting up her apartment. My mother especially did a lot of work "re-creating" scrapped furniture to make her some "chic" furnishings. After we'd pooled our stuff, and received some hand-me-downs from friends…she really has a nice little place to live for the next year.
Leaving her there was harder than I thought it would be. Greensboro is a bigger city than what we're used to. She cried. I cried. And all the way home Jack complained about his heart hurting. I wasn't sure if I needed to stop by an emergency room or if it was just broken from leaving his sister.
I know she'll be fine. She's smart and I know God is in control. He's got tremendous plans for her. She may not know it…but I do.
It was good to take a break from work and go to North Carolina. We took two days off from the moving and work of setting up housekeeping to go to the beach. My mom actually went to the beach with us…something she has never done.
Jack had an incredible time at the beach. He played in the ocean to his heart's content. I've never seen him enjoy himself so much as he did with that boogie board in the ocean.
On the drive back home to Tennessee, I could not escape the idea that "maybe I should just pack up and move to North Carolina too." There was an emptiness in "my own heart" as I returned home. I can't say that I would have felt the same way about moving though if she had chosen to accept the assistantship in Atlanta or Washington, DC. I know that I don't belong in either of those two places.
I came in to work on Friday after getting back, and a co-worker said to me, "Carole, do you ever get the feeling you're not where you are supposed to be or that you should be doing something else?"
I don't know if it was a "message" from God…or just a random thought. But the answer is obviously, "yes."
Then I have another friend who is constantly telling me, "You are exactly where you are supposed to be."
And sometimes I think…"yes" to that comment too.
Such contrast, huh?
I wish I knew for sure.
Driving home from and through North Caroline…every now and then, I'd get off the interstate for a bathroom break or a snack. Since it was just Jack and I travelling, I'd ease off down the streets of some of these random towns and wonder "would I fit in here?"
I don't know the answer. I'm 43 years old…probably too old to start all over in any place. But then I think, starting over couldn't be as bad as feeling like sometimes you are just "muddling" through. You know…"stuck."
I don't know. I just don't know.
Oh well…

The relationship that you consciously want would be unconditionally loving and supportive, intimate and fun. But no matter what you do, you can't find that relationship. It's like you are cursed. You keep ending up with partners who make you feel unloved, unsupported, undervalued, unseen and stressed. You keep asking yourself "why do I deserve this?" Well guess what, it has nothing to do with deserving. It has everything to do with your subconscious mind.

Dental health might come across as a rather innocuous problem, but there is no reason for us to take it lightly. Dental health often functions as the index to an overall good health and it is extremely crucial for one and all to maintain the utmost hygiene level. Your teeth are arguably one of the most susceptible parts of your body wherein the slightest neglect can result in substantial damage. Dental ailment pans across a variety of diseases which unless immediately arrested, can potentially inflict a lot of harm.
We all know about that dreaded toothache and it is not an experience that one would like reliving. Although dentists with their whole host of extractions, fillings and excisions often help in soothing those toothaches, for a more natural mode of healing and remedying dental disorders, one may turn to Ayurveda. Ayurveda regards healthy lifestyle practices like balanced and wise dietary choices and diligent brushing as the most fundamental requisite for maintaining your oral health.
Some of the advisable methods for upholding oral hygiene can be enlisted as follows:
- Dant Dhavani or Brushing: As an alternative to the new age bristle brushes, Ayurveda recommends the herbal chewing sticks for the purpose of brushing. As per Ayurveda, the effect is better in those sticks which have a bitter or an astringent taste. For this purpose, Neem, Licorice, Cutch, Arjuna, Milkweed or Fever Nut are best suited.
- Gargling with rock salt and mustard oil: For the upkeep of oral hygiene, it is a healthy practice to massage the gums with mustard oil and rock salt. One can gargle it off with warm water after leaving it for a span of five minutes. Persistent following of this method can bring considerable improvement to your oral hygiene. It is also a good way to mitigate the impacts of asthma and migraine.
- Jivha Lekhana or Tongue Scraping: Pure metal is endowed with a lot of health boosting properties. Thus, instead of stainless steel tongue cleaners, Ayurveda advocates the use of scrapers made of gold, silver or copper. This helps in battling bad odor and enhances your sense of taste.

I suppose I've put this off for long enough.
Oh no. Good lord, no. Holy potatoes, no. Ok, fine. Yes. I did see You Don't Mess With the Zohan Friday night. I was excited. You all witnessed that. But afterwards, I was truly disappointed. Adam Sandler is always funny, as are his movies. And I was afraid that the funniest and best parts of the movie were going to be divulged in the trailers and previews. Well, I was right. Boy, was I right.
Not only was this movie not as funny as I had hoped, it was boring. Even the storyline was a little weird. I get the whole foreigner coming to America in search of a better life and career. But come on. Adam Sandler is far better suited for playing Joe Normal characters that have little quirks that make them funny. In Zohan, he was not Joe Normal anymore. And there weren't any little quirks about him that could be played up.
Fine, My likes:
- Adam Sandler definitely bulked up for this part. Truly, it was the best part of the movie.
- Rob Schneider appeared. Talk about solidarity. And this is yet another reason I like Adam Sandler: He's loyal.
- The commercials were bloody hilarious. That's about it.
What I hated…
- This wasn't Adam Sandler's typical, quirky Joe Normal character.
- It wasn't funny. The funniest parts were the commercials. The movie extended maybe 2 of the commercials in the movie… personally… the commercials were better.
- There was no concrete plotline. Sure, foreigner comes to America in search of a better life, etc. Didn't that happen in Coming to America and Trading Places?
- Did I mention it just wasn't funny?
- The hype. The hype made Zohan look like a secure contender for funniest comedy of the summer… and was perhaps going to give Mike Myers' The Love Guru. If anything, it tainted my desire to see the Mike Myers flick because what if the best part was the previews…
Was I harsh on this movie? Perhaps. But considering D fell asleep, and I was bored and couldn't sit still, I think it was an appropriate reaction for me to express.
The only shining star is hat The Incredible Hulk opens this weekend. Starring Edward Norton, I'm crossing my fingers that this ends up being a good one.

Trump Throws Hissy Fit After Finding Out Kuwait Leader Has Bigger Plane Than Him (TWEETS)
Donald Trump has a weird, unhealthy obsession with the size of just pretty much everything. From his crowd sizes to his body parts, Trump can't get over bragging the size of everything that is related to him, but he was recently handed a major disappointment that completely ruined his day.
When Kuwait's Emir Sabah al-Ahmad al-Jaber al-Sabah visited Washington on Thursday to speak with Trump over their shared security interests and fight against ISIS, Trump made a discovery that pretty much devastated him and overshadowed everything the two men would try to accomplish in their time together.
When Trump caught a glimpse of the plane that the Kuwait leader came in on, Trump couldn't help but be impressed by its size – and destroyed by the fact that it was bigger than his own Boeing 757 plane. Trump was so obsessed with this size difference that he complained about it in his later meetings with congressional candidates. Seriously, how can anyone in Congress expect to get things done when the current president gets distracted and hung up by such petty details?
This is just one instance in a list of many where Trump has been obsessed with size. If you look at what Trump's language has been on hurricanes Harvey and Irma, Trump's messages have been extremely unpresidential as he brags about their size more than his plan of action for the devastation.
And let's not forget that when Trump spoke with a group of Harvey survivors, he failed to comfort them and instead bragged about himself. He said, "What a crowd, what a turnout." Pathetic.
This president is an absolute disgrace. His ego and peculiar obsession with size has rendered him incapable of doing his presidential duties and focusing on the future of America.

Opening to my limitless field of possibilities and finding my soul purpose. I find more and more wonder in my life. I love being able to take a walk with my camera and see the beauty that surrounds me, it fills me with such joy and happiness. Recently I spent a weekend with my father and we went to a beautiful garden and I took lots of photographs, we spent a really special time together.
There are aspects of my life that I need to let go of; some of the structures and habits that no longer serve me. My feelings of inferiority, my ambivalence and the sense of not being good enough. These limiting beliefs keep me small and scared and unable to see the immense power that I have within me.
I realise the desire I have to activate a higher level of creativity. I want to accept and see before me the vision for my life which fulfills my higher destiny. That I have a passion to become the archaeologist of my own mind and become able to use all of my senses to live my life to the fullest.
Five senses
Taste the sweet raspberries, strawberries and blueberries Covered with pristine yoghurt. The scent of jasmine and honeysuckle Warmed by the night air.
The sun warms my skin, Touching my face. Barefoot dancing on the earth, As I hear the sound of the nightingale Calling out in song to my heart, I see the light dappled in the darkness And the dew drop on the rose.
I know the journey of my life and am thankful for my ancestors and now I open to what is ahead of me. My past has given me lessons, some of the hardships and challenges have been there for me to learn and give me the strength for what is to follow. They are my inner resource and through such times we learn resilience. So I can change to become more and more of what I'm meant to be.
Why I Wake Early
Hellow, sun in my face
Hello, you who make the morning
and spread it over the fields
and into the faces of tulips
and the nodding morning glories,
and into the windows of even, the
miserable and crotchety –
best preacher that ever was,
dear star, that just happens
to be where you are in the universe
to keep us from ever – darkness
to ease us with warm touching,
to hold us in the great hand of light,
good morning, good morning, good morning.
Watch, Birmingham how I start the day
in happiness, in kindness
Mary Oliver

Stitching Concrete Stools by Florian Schmid
German designer Florian Schmid has created the Stitching Concrete stools.
Stitching concrete is a project about using the new material Concrete Canvas. It combines the softness of cloth with the stability of concrete. Once brought in the final shape, you just have to water the material and within 24h it will alomst harden out completely. The challenge was to get into the material and bring it from its rawness to something new. Approching trough patterns, origami and stitchings a unique series of stools got born. Waterproof, fireproof, resistant against UV, durable. The fibre reinforcement makes it strong and the cloth gives back a warm atmosphere.

16 oz. cream cheese (2 packages) softened
1/2 cup unsalted butter (one stick), softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
pinch of salt
With an electric mixer, blend together cream cheese and butter until smooth. Turn mixer to low speed and blend in powdered sugar, salt and vanilla extract. Turn mixer on high and beat until light and fluffy. Use immediately or refrigerate, covered, until ready to use. If refrigerated, the frosting will need to be brought to room temperature before using (after frosting softens up, beat with mixer until smooth).
Recipe Notes: Make sure your butter and cream cheese is in room temperature if you want a smooth icing. I learned the hard way.. I had a lumped icing. Wooops.

Over the next few days, you start seeing Mustangs wherever you go. New ones, old ones, all different kinds of Mustangs. The word "damage" is never used in this study. But what else are these Nike Huarache Black And White Ultra "lasting effects on the functional architecture of the brain," other than a manifestation of ECT induced brain damage in the before and after shock treatment MRIs that were done? The study is so poorly reported that we only know that the MRIs were conducted sometime "after," presumably very soon after the ECT.
I've used drugs to numb myself since I was 16. When the man I loved didn't love me back enough, I drank myself silly and snorted cocaine. If you compare the Nokia E71 with the BlackBerry Bold you will find that all the essential features that are required on a handset do exist on both the mobile phones. For instance, the internet, camera, Bluetooth, EDGE, 3G HSDPA, Quad band network etc.
With all that goes on in my world, I can depend on you. Because you're solid. Factors that could cause the actual results to differ materially from those in forward looking statements include regulatory actions, market prices, and continued availability of capital and financing, and general economic, market or business conditions. Investors are cautioned that any such statements are not guarantees of future performance and actual results or developments may differ materially from those projected in the forward looking statements.
"Crucially the Dakatcha case also shows how biofuel plantations can create huge social upheaval with whole communities losing their land, homes and jobs." Dr Byron continued: "The proposed plantation in Dakatcha is just one example of the disastrous but unseen impact of biofuels on the climate, nature and people there are plenty more coming to light all the time. "The UK Government recognises the problems thatsubsidising biofuels is causing across the world and last week announced that it intends to limit such subsidies.
But you still have to make available training, education and materials so that the forward thinking chief says, do I make sure that my officers are using modern policing tactics? How do I make sure that my officers Nike Huarache Black And White Ultra are not engaging in racial profiling and other kinds of unconstitutional behavior? Well, they should be able to turn to the Department of Justice and say, you send trainers out to me? Can you give me a sample of what a modern policy looks like on use of force, bias free policing? Can you send me out modern training modules and manuals about what community engagement should look like because I don know what it looks like and I need your help. So what you can do is say we not going to get involved in police departments and not give police departments tools and resources that they need to do the job better, particularly when they ask you for the help.

After being a mother for twenty-six years, with three children, I became a grandmother a couple of months ago to a beautiful little boy, Darcy. It's been an amazing experience taking me through a whole range of emotions that I hadn't expected. I was very on edge the day Darcy was born. Some of this was imagining all the things my daughter-in-law might be going through, as well as my son. Before he was born, I thought I'd cry when I finally saw him, but when I actually did meet him, I felt very calm. I didn't immediately bond with him as a parent would, but that seems to be the right way to feel. I'm getting closer to him each time I see him. I'm a Gran in love with her grandson.
So how is parenting different in this decade compared to 'my day' in the 1980s? Actually, some things are identical. Babies continue to be conceived and born in the same old way; milk still comes out of breasts; and babies still cry and exhaust their parents. Also, babies all have their own unique personalities, meaning no two of them are the same and none of the parenting books give the same advice. In some ways, not much has changed.
But some things are different. Although I wasn't raising babies in the dark ages, we only had cloth nappies. Disposables were around, but they were leaky, expensive and reserved for holidays or the first week or so after bringing home a new baby. We lived in the country, with tank water for drinking and bore water for everything else, meaning all our white laundry was a grey-yellow. Cloth nappies meant a good half-hour each morning over the laundry sink cleaning off yesterday's poo (into the toilet, then scrubbing the rest off with a scrubbing brush under running water). It was just part of the routine and I did it because that's what we did then. Before you reel back in horror remember that your mother probably did the same for you.
Living in the country also meant that we had to light a fire every day in our Metters No.2 kitchen stove so we could have hot water – every day, summer or winter. This meant that many hours were spent by all of us in the bush collecting firewood, then chopping it and carting it to the house. This was also our cooking method in the kitchen. I'm so glad I experienced all this, even though it was hard work.
So now I'm a Gran, I love it. There's a little boy who only lives a short distance from me who I hope to grow a relationship with. But I know I need to be careful. As I've spent time with other new mums over the past few years, and now with my daughter-in-law, I've learnt that things are done differently these days. Mums, Dads and babies see obstetricians and pediatricians, whereas I only had a GP. I still remember him coming in to the hospital from his farm to deliver my babies. Babies are wrapped differently, and don't wear nighties, and we have to sterilise everything that goes within coo-ee of them.
But if I, as a very new Gran, could offer any advice to other grandparents out there it's just to respect these new ways. If you want to stay on the 'in' with your kids and their kids, accept that our old ways were new ways once too, and that just because things are done differently, it doesn't mean we need to say anything. The last thing that new parents need is to feel judged by their family.
Take care with how much you get involved. You may want to be helpful, but you should try hard not to drive your kids nuts. I've done things like just texted to say, "Can I come over and bath Darcy?" "Can I drop a meal in?" or "Can we meet at a café for coffee?" But I've also made mistakes already – just minor ones, I hope. The key is not to be overwhelming, but to be there if you're needed. And when you do go to bath the baby, ask how they would like it done, don't just do it the way you used to do it. They want to trust you, but if they think you'll do things your way the moment their backs are turned, you're not building that trust.
I'm still working this out and I imagine it will morph from week to week, month to month.
The other thing I've noticed is that my son parents by Google. "Not sure? Look it up?" would be his philosophy. An interesting approach and very helpful at times, but my only warning to him is not to believe everything he finds on Google but to stick to a couple of reputable sites.
Even though I'm a beginner, I hope my experiences have given you a different perspective on what it is to be a grandparent.
How is being a grandparent different to being a parent? How much has changed since you, or your Mum, were having kids?

We are scheduled (& hoping to) break ground tomorrow! I am waiting for the call from our Project Manager advising us.... Keep your fingers crossed!!Scotthttp://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011496791316523405.post-68166003626823427452010-10-23T14:20:00.001-04:002010-11-05T18:35:14.296-04:00Updates......so as a new blog about building a Ryan Home I just wanted to catch up what has already transpired and then I'll be ready to keep updates current going forward!

First, a little about me! I am an Interior Designer in the Cleveland, OH area. I, along with my business partner, have a Studio and Furniture/Accessory store in the City of Cleveland. Until just a week ago I lived just around the corner from the Studio in a contemporary three story townhouse.

In mid-August we decided that we wanted to move away from the city and started looking at new construction on the west side of Cleveland. Our last place I bought new just four years ago...and I really like having new. My previous houses had all been fixer-uppers and, as much as I like doing the work, was not ready to tackle again! So here we were...trying to stay in the same price range, looking for new construction, and wanting a reasonable size yard...we stumbled on Meadow Lakes in North Ridgeville, OH. Everything was right but what about the lot? Well, as it turned out, some lots are larger (at a premium of course) but available nonetheless! So we bit the bullet, signed a Purchase Agreement mid-Oct and got the last of the available larger lots (with woods behind)! Our lot is 58' X 206' so just over 1/4 acre....we are thrilled!

Yep, we've got dirt!

So...here we were...mid-August....signing a purchase agreement without even having our current home on the market yet! So there was a bit of scrambling to get it ready and up for sale! Fortunately, we signed the listing agreement on a Sunday...it hit the MLS on Wednesday and on Saturday we had an offer! It took a bit of negotiating but finally reached an agreement and it finally closed and transferred on October 15th... Of course we had a contingency agreement with Ryan and finally were able to satisfy everything with them on the 15th which then released us to be put on the schedule! Our pre-construction (road map) meeting is this coming Monday and we are scheduled to break ground on Wednesday the 27th...I am QUITE anxious!

I've gotta say that EVERYONE at Ryan has been absolutely terrific to work with and accomodating! We did have to meet all the deadlines as everyone else did...we've just had extra time before our build could begin! Here is a brief rundown of what we are building and some of the options we added:

Florence - Elevation B - reversed 04 model - no Morning Room - no Finished Basement

We added the usual 42" cabinets Sonoma Maple Spice in the kitchen (the 04 model comes with the cabinet over the refrigerator!)

No island in the kitchen - I want to add something more unique and interesting as an island than the optional island...

I did not add the microwave over the stove, instead I added a dedicated circuit in the pantry for a portable microwave. My plan is to remove the std exhaust hood and cabinet above it, and replace with a contemporary stainless steel hood surrounded by glass tile

We did add a garage drain, a three piece rough-in for a bath in the basement (but under the kitchen instead of the standard location), changed the owners bath std tub to a 5' shower, double sinks/vanities

Beacuase of my business, I get crazy about lighting sooooo...I added the five recessed lights in the kitchen, recessed lights in place of the fixtures in the foyer, outside the powder room and in place of the fixtures in the hall outside the bedrooms. We added a recessed fixture over the shower in the owners bath and ceiling fans in the bedrooms, loft and family room. Added a fixture above the (future) island, in the front living/dining room and a switched outlet above the kitchen cabinets - to add undercabinet lighting later. They wanted $500 for the undercabinet lighting which was way more than I was willing to spend!

No Fireplace - I just didn't like the options - but did run a gas line to the back wall between the two windows in the family room for a future fireplace. We also added two windows on the side wall of the family room - I crave natural light!

Exterior wise - Khaki Siding/Almond Trim/Brown Shutters/ Plum Front Door and Stone on the front as well... This was a big expense but I have high hopes!!!

That's about it so far! We are excited beyond belief and I can't wait for everything this week! Hopefully I'll have pics to post of our house under construction soon!!!!Scotthttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-7011496791316523405.post-58453065103346376442010-10-22T10:14:00.001-04:002010-11-05T18:35:44.776-04:00On our way........yes, we too are building a Ryan Home! I, too, am a little late in starting my blog but I hope to get everything caught up soon! I have read (over and over again) everyone's blog and they were all so very helpful that I am hoping that I can add some insight that will be useful for other people! Tomorrow I should get pictures as well as a big update posted... We have not broken ground yet....next week! I look forward to posting soon!!Scotthttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

Studio lighting is something that can really enhance a photo and help pictures have a beautiful glow. For some assignments I really wanted to use a studio, but the only place I can really go is at school – which I might not be able to go there all the time. Once I learned that we could borrow studio lights from Mr. Twitchell, I took hold of that opportunity.
In my room, I have a lot of wall space to mess with. But I have a crap load of furniture too. So my room looks like a construction zone at the moment, with all the furniture I moved from the wall. But thats the mess behind the beauty haha.
I'm a rookie in all this jazz so half of the time I don't know what I'm doing, but I do it anyways, just for kicks and giggles.
Here was my set up:
I had a plain, white sheet that I hung up for the background, that besides its wrinkles, worked very well.
As seen, the lighting is very nice upon the sheet. After test shot, after test shot I moved the studio light so many times I thought I would never get it right. But I learned that for each different photo I take requires a different position of the light. It all depends.
Side view.
So far, its doing me good. I used it for the above post which is idioms. I'm still improving and working on it, but I'm very proud of how it is turning out!

It was Linda Chapin's final meeting as Orange County chairman, and things were rocky.
Light rail, one of Chapin's favored projects, was being fiercely debated.
The vote to back the commuter train had been delayed by a few hours so one of Chapin's key allies could fly into town for the vote. Commissioners were arguing. Chapin was shaking her head.
