February 25th, 2024 Part Two - Ernie

Last year when we were traveling back and forth to Kingman, we would see a little enclave in the mountain and there was always something new added.   One day we stopped and met Ernie who was the owner and creator of all of this.  On the top of the hill, he was going to build his house - the driveway was already dug out.   Well, after checking out his attractions and chatting with him, he invited us for tea when his house was built.  We told him we would see him next season and that is what we did today.

When we pulled in, I was so happy to see him there.  He has added a number of new things but his house is still in the works.  We told him about the blog and mentioning him last year.  He told us that his son was overseas and finds all the blogs where he is mentioned - how funny.

Here is Ernie with Andy:

The last time I was there, he was just adding the gazebo.  Now it is finished with furniture.  He opened the gates for us and told us to enjoy.  Here are some of his attractions:

The gazebo:

YARD ART - I LOVE IT!

Look close - it is a stage coach.  I think by next year he will have something pulling it!

The entrance is thru the gate that is in the boat:

His house will be on top of the hill and yes, he did invite us for tea.

What fun - this place and Ernie just make me smile.  Can't wait until next season to see what he has done!

What a great day!
