Had a few too many things going on today- if and when I do this again, I need to make these smaller or charge more! It is really hard to get them done in the time I have available~ and enough whining~ I loved painting the tree! and all those sweet rails on the banisters! Or are they just called railings when they go horizontal?
Here's what Nancy wrote to me about this fine edifice!
Nineteen years ago we took on the challenge of this tired almost 100 year old house in Bayfield. We thought it would be a worthy and rewarding experience for our two young sons to see this "sows ear turned into a silk purse." We gutted the lower level and turned it into three rentable suites. The upstairs two bedroom apartment housed our weary bodies as we worked on weekends to get it ready for rental.
Our now adult sons still look back with pride on Ship's Quarters. We just this weekend closed and winterized the old home. Driving through the snow storm to close it up for 2017.
Our granddaughter's birthday is November 26th and her Daddy, our son's birthday, November 28th. We give thanks for both of them.... and Ship's Quarters.
