Gathering

Our new home was built by an architect named John Randal McDonald. I had never heard of him before we were looking for homes, but he's a fairly well-known guy who's organic style is similar to Frank Lloyd Wright's. Obviously, we are big fans. Today, there was a gathering of JRM homeowners, family and friends in Racine, Wisconsin at a home called the Trilogy House (it's for sale, by the way). The home, was simply spectacular. Unfortunately, these photos don't even do it justice. Loser (me) forgot my camera today so had to take all the pictures with my phone. Can you even believe it? But more than anything, it was so great meeting other admirers of McDonald's work, and fellow homeowners. We even met some neighbors who are a block away, and who's house we drive by all the time -- we had thought it could possibly the same architect, but didn't know for sure. But whenever we drive by, we always say how it's one of our favorites in the area. Turns out they even have a daughter who is just starting to babysit, so double score. Looking forward to next year's gathering!
