Welcome to Ravensduke Cottage. I am writing this blog to capture the emerging  creative thoughts, ideas, and renovations of our 1060’s brick Florida Cottage.  Moreover, some of the ideas and concepts of the Transformational Organizational Process that I designed are embedded throughout. The details in these writings are musings as I create the vision of my life.  The photos and posts meld all of my interests from breeding and showing bullmastiffs to the renovations of Ravensduke Cottage. This is my Micro-Farm life and the journey to create it. I have learned from my mother and grandmother, how to “make a silk purse from a sow’s ear.” I find joy in creating something clever and useful from once unused and unloved objects. Therefore, there is a page for some creative “Redeuxs” in which we transforming old items into new, creative, restorative projects. I invite you to join me on this powerful journey of Rennovation, Redeauxs, and Responding to Life.
