Our Home in Stony Creek

I

While in NY, I took a few pictures of interesting areas in our home. Our house is definitely an Adirondack home: One room is a log room, built by my dad. He cut the trees, peeled the logs, and built the room. Two rooms, added when I was nine, have knotty pine paneling. I stayed in my brother's old room, which my parents changed to an office. Mom used it when she was in college. She is a really avid reader and reads a lot of what I would consider modern classics. 

She loves artwork and values a lot of different cultures. Here's a Monet hanging next to a map showing the various Native American tribes in America. 

And, of course, she loves the Yankees. Has since she was a girl.  She also loves the beach and has collected lots of shells and sand dollars in Florida. 

Here's the front porch. My parents screened it in after I left home. Wise move; the mosquitoes at home are horrid.  The furniture is vintage wicker--the real deal. It belonged to my grandmother. I spend a lot of time on the porch. 

It rained a lot and Corbin built this popsicle stick house while we were there.
