Continuing with the pirate theme, I found something I certainly wasn’t expecting. You can actually have your own pirate ship. Now how cool is that??
Okay, it’s not a real pirate ship, but from the street, and particularly at night under a full moon, it will certainly look as if you have a pirate ship sailing in your backyard! You will have people wondering if your backyard is haunted! Perfect for Halloween I would be thinking. I know that Britt for one would love something like this. Okay she would want the real thing, but lets go one step …read more

In regions where mild weather beckons nearly all year, outdoor living spaces are a natural complement to your lifestyle. So when Nancy and Gary Rossman remodeled their Scottsdale backyard, they ditched a large, unused lawn and replaced it with a furnished outdoor room.
