Pictures I promised


Here's a quick "tour" of the apartment so far. You may be able to "follow" this sequence better by opening the earlier past post of the floor plan in another window and referring to it as we go.

The living area is one large room with the kitchen at its west end. This picture shows the bank of windows on the south wall and our house plants covered for the unheated nights.



Here's the same wall from the outside. The large window on the left is where the dining "booth" furniture will be.



Moving clockwise, next is the kitchen area and the bathroom.





And here's that wall from the outside.



And finally the bedroom, inside,



and the north wall outside. The lower window on the north wall is at the stairway landing. There is another window on that wall but its opening hasn't been cut in the Tyvek yet because it will be installed after the panels are nailed up.



Yesterday we nailed up the first exterior panels. this is the lower level of the east wall. Remember, the easternmost 8' by 24' section of the barn is not part of the apartment.

I'm trying a program that "stitches" photos together. Here's my first effort looking down the hill from about 50 yards west of the pole barn.



The sky didn't stitch too well, but maybe I'll find a way to deal with that.

Green View Springs property runs to about the first horizontal line of trees. The hills in the background are about 2 miles away.
