Restoration Cottage

Restoration Cottage Restoration Cottage is about our adventure in restoring a home while it restores us. My wife Debbie and decided it was time to move.

A little over four hours later we had a new home in the historic district of Sanford, Florida. We will post photos & videos as we bring this cottage back to its original condition. This should be quite a feat since I really know nothing about home restoration. However, with enough coffee and a good internet connection, I'm sure we will do just fine.

Goodbye from the garden. It is with mixed emotions that I announce our departure from Restoration Cottage. We are leaving on the exact day and month that we arrived 10 years earlier. We have made wonderful friends and memories over those 10 years, non of which will be forgotten. Our travels will be taking us across the Atlantic to a new country and adventures.

We love you all and will see you soon from another land!

As we get closer to our move to Riga, Latvia, it came time for the Fairy Robots to say, “Goodbye” to Restoration Cottage. I packed them safely in their case ...

Good evening from the garden!

It seems the preferred method of engaging followers of the Fairy Robots is via YouTube. To that end I have finally created a channel for them and will use it as the primary delivery method for everything Fairy Robots. The website will continue as well.

To that end, can you do me a huge favor, please? Go to YouTube and search for . Subscribe, hit the bell and watch and LIKE all the videos. A comment or two on some of them helps as well. This will push this channel forward.

One more thing, our plans have changed a bit as we are moving to Latvia instead of Portugal. This is a better move for us and the robots, actually. Almost everything is packed and ready to be shipped so it is difficult to produce anything.

There will be at least one more video before we leave.
