Our Backyard

We spend a lot of time in our sun porch and this view is part of the reason.  You can see the potting shed, the studio, and part of the back yard. The potting shed is made from doors that we have collected on our trips.  The studio was originally a oversized second two car garage. Howard hung a lot of doors!!!!!  He did all the work on both projects.  I've had him over half my life,  he's a keeper!

The Family Room

This is our family room.  We started with a black lava rock fireplace with no mantle!  Lava rock is very uneven and impossible to drill a hole in.  So we had to think outside the box a little and this is what we came up with!  The walls were very dark paneling and the floor was carpeted. It took 7 gallons of paint to cover all that paneling..I thought we would never get done!
