It's not perfect but we're in!!!

So we still have LOTS of work to do but we have moved in (10/30/09). No flooring and the place won't get sided until next season. It's time to nest for the winter :) Now taking reservations for Winter Carnival!





Paint, paint, paint!!

Stone work for wood stove back-drop. Don't have the stove yet.

A minimally finished mudroom. Tile still needs to be grouted, door needs to be stained, and the barn board for the perimeter has yet to be put up BUT - we're working on it!

Master bedroom with temporary guest bed. Obviously the color scheme is as relaxing as I had hoped ;)

Master bathroom. Still need countertop and sink (and trim is obviously needed everywhere).

Very sparsely furnished living room. But it's still cozy.

Like I said, it's sparse but I still have my comfy chair.

Temporary sink and countertops but I'm back in business and with a dishwasher for the first time in 4 years!! Everthing goes in!!!

The inaugeral bubble bath and it's so nice and deep. Yes that's wine and cheese!

View of the adequate room (not quite a great room) from the hall.

Nothing like bringing the outdoors in, ha! It's only temporary.

Guest bath. Not thrilled with the curtain but it will do for now.

Beautiful copper sink in guest bath.

And ...

I took some time out a few weeks ago to go catch some birds.

Red-tail we trapped and banded.




Educational barn owl. Didn't need to trap this one. She is housed by a falconer about an hour north of Loon Lake. She's sooooooo sweet.
