A Quaker stone home… notice the quality of the stone and it’s workmanship. Most impressive.
I can’t help but wonder what the folks of “years gone by” would think of our use of old wagon wheels as decorative items. So many old homes and cabins have them leaning against the home for an aging affect. I wonder if our descendants, a hundred years from now, will use 21st century spare tires to add a bit of our vintage era to their homes?

Quality vs Quantity

Oh my.
She is so fine.
When contemplating the design and construction of a home, the first decision to be made is “quality vs quantity”.
The owner of this small stone home chose the highest level of quality. They could have had a vinyl clad home, twice as large as this one, for the same price.
It’s a tough choice to make.
Living small is challenging, while living large is so tempting.
We naturally want both, quality and quantity, but few people have the financial resources for a large home built as well as it can be.
So, is quality worth the cost?
