Welcome to the Carpenter's!

I have been meaning to share these with you since my visit to Sherwood's Forest a month ago. Right on the edge of hiking trails, wilderness and wildlife you don't remember that you are in L.A. Driving through the many fun windy streets to there house (little john, arrow way, sherif court, nottingham...) Several kind elderly neighbors wave while walking there dogs. Walk up an inviting entry but don't ring the doorbell- that is the neighbors- You have to walk through their bedroom, through the landry room, past the bathroom and kitchen and you've reached a comfortable place to sit and play wii fit (everyone has to weigh in for themselves or your mii personality might go bonkers on the tightrope and jump to her death) or stroll out to the back patio where the turtles and many beautiful plants live. Through my camera lens for a second I thought I was in El Salvador it was looking so green and full of life. They will share a spider or two with you so bring a pot. Though it may be small they have taken advantage of every space adding shelves, hooks and elevating their bed for additional storage. You know Ivy lives there when you see the monkeys and ducks- you can't miss them! There are little shirts, lots of diapers, and a purple highchair waiting the return of the littlest carpenter. We were received graciously by wonderful hosts- definately a place to visit!
