So we are doing the kitchen and bathrooms on a house we built 25 years ago and the boys found this in the wall...sigh.

The Environmental and Sustainable Excellence Award is achieved when a builder shows dedication to incorporating sustainable principles in the homes design, choice of materials, and the way in which it’s built. At High Country Homes we view sustainability as more than just ‘energy efficiency’. It is a way to consider future generations and leave a legacy of value. Our winning home was truly an example of this, using no treatment chemicals, polystyrene or plastic during construction. NZ sourced timber, solar panels and a rainwater collection system are just a few of the many sustainable details that earned us this award.

A wee family vacation front pointing up Gloriana's SE couloir. Unfortunately there was actually a NW hurricane at the top and the girls couldnt do the final peak.
Check out the clip of the chamois escaping up the hill like it was nothing. Watch the middle two who decide to have a fight over whos going first.
