The finished house 23 years later. Blue sky above Bald Mt. behind the stuccoed house. A couple fruit trees on the right, obscuring the workshop, an artistically laid out produce garden in the foreground. The home has a semi-circular stair tower on the east side extending down to the basement & up to the bedroom. The whimsical windows in the tower took a little head scratching. I laid the foundation with cement blocks up to grade, then framed 4 curved sections with 20' 2"x6" studs after having the local power coop place a huge 20'x2' lodgepole pine on the footing in the basement. P. probably has photos of the process, I was too busy at the time. I remember feeling a bit of a buzz having all that come together. There is something about working with friends to accomplish a task, when things just flow, akin to being in the zone.
