Here it is....our NEW Fried Green Tomatoes Truck! We purchased is last year and fixed it up! Now we can travel to the Farmer's Market and Hand-made shows in style!! Just look at our beautiful herbs and flowers for sale! Don't forget we are at The Burlington Farmer's Market every Thursday. Drop by and see the truck for yourself!

I took this photo in my Log Home studio during a photo shoot for a magazine! The sun was bursting through the window and it just made me smile!

Another great shot taken on the front porch of the Log Home. It's one of our favorite places to just relax and enjoy some quiet time!

The Log House Studio

After a year of hard work and collaborated effort, the Log House is finished and the studio is up and running!

It was about a year ago that the Logs arrived from a Log House that originally stood in Wabash Indiana in 1840. Bill Shwantz laid the concrete slab first then Craig and Tad Van Valin began placing the logs on top. The logs were numbered when they were dismantled in Wabash so it was like putting a puzzle together (or Lincoln Logs!).

The rafters for the roof and porch were reclaimed from a Wisconsin barn and covered with cedar shingles. Tad and Craig are amazing craftsmen, this project never would have happened without their expertise.

Jamey and I finished the interior. Jamey's carpentry is amazing! I assisted with the interior chinking and painting. Bill built a brick chimney and we installed a wood stove to heat us through the winter.

Many thanks to everyone who helped this dream Studio come true. I still can't believe it happened and I smile every time I see it. :))
