Rooms in the Barn

Troy starting it all.



The bathroom, Chuck's office and loft



The Loft play room



All that " stuff" will be gone one day!

For four years now, Chuck had an idea in his head on how he wanted rooms in the barn.  We had it plumbed for a bathroom when they poured the floor.  After trying to clean out all the " stuff" we finally gave up because we needed a place to put it all.  Not just sitting it in the middle of the barn.  So, Chuck called Troy to have him come out and frame in the bathroom, an office and a loft, over it all.  Chuck is going to do the railing on the loft and the dry wall on the inside of the rooms.  He's going to put rough cut wood on the outside walls.  It only took Troy a couple of days to get it all done.  As soon as he had the steps going up to the loft, Chuck and I started going through " stuff" and putting it in the loft.  Of course there are still things that we are getting rid of.  It's amazing how you can live without things that you just thought you had to have one time in your life.  Chuck laughed at me when he put the toys from Shell and Genavive's childhood in the loft, because I arranged it like a little room.  I even have a doll and monkey that was mine when I was little, up there. Once the rooms are done, we can finish going through all the "stuff" and the barn will be cleared.  I'm hoping to have my skating rink back....of course I'll have to skate around the 1970 Camaro and a couple of work benches but won't it be nice to be able to work in the barn and not have boxes, boxes and more boxes every where!
