My hubby, Jim and I agree that winter is pretty spectacular in NW Montana. Especially in Glacier National Park, where the crowds are non-existent. We had a rare, blue-sky day to explore the Rocky Point Trail and it was stunningly beautiful. In today's post, I'll share details of our winter adventure to Rocky Point in… Continue reading Rocky Point – Winter Trail
My husband, Jim and I built our new home in NW Montana with features that are important to us. Our home is not a Spec home, and we are certainly not planning to sell it for a very long time. I think a lot of new home builders or folks embarking on major remodels worry… Continue reading Design for Living verses Selling

In today's post, I'll share… Continue reading Mid-Century Modern Design

Where there was once dirt, rocks and wildflowers, now sits the bones of our house. In today's post, I'll share an update on trusses, framing, flooring and cabinet choices. Plus, I… Continue reading The Bones – Majestic Meadows
The lovely meadows overlooking the Swan Range mountains inspired the name Majestic Meadows in 2017. It wasn't until 2024 that we finally broke ground on our home build. There's a symbolic nature to building a foundation together in a place we love. Building a house is exciting, stressful and takes a bit of work. In… Continue reading Building a Foundation – Majestic Meadows
