As promised here are some pictures of my home for the next 10 months. As you can see Dad really has blessed me! The greatest blessing is I don’t have to pay the rent on this place :) and it is truly a lovely home!
This is the entry way, we are facing the bathroom and the front door. Notice my cowboy boots sitting by the door.
From the entry way you can enter into the bathroom or a closet type room that holds a water heater type thing used in winter months (right now my water is heated by solar power). Straight ahead from the outside door your looking into the kitchen and if you walk towards where I was standing to take this picture you will enter into the living room/dinning area.
My living Room, this and the dinning room table is where the majority of our school takes place. Doesn't the furniture make you think your in the past somehow?
This is the kitchen and the view outside my kitchen door.
Next we go upstairs to the second floor. Immediately on our right is the bedroom of the lady who normally lives here (she is in the states for the next 6 months). As she has a TV with a VCR, it is also the 6th grade math room (Both girls are using video/DVD teachers for Math, much to my relief!!!)
So what do you think of the shower? no curtains just tile walls and floor.
Also the washer and dryer.
The photos below are the guest bedroom (technically it is larger then the house I lived in back in Meeteetse.) For now it is where I am sleeping since it is too hot upstairs.
Now it is time to walk to the third floor. the shelf you saw in the kitchen hold the school books we are currently using, this one hold the stuff we will use. See the carpet, I commented that it looks like something from the Southwest US in design. It is a tribal design from here, Small world isn’t it?
This is my bedroom, and yes I brought all those books with me! The bottom two shelves are the novels I’m incorporating into this school year.
The hallway just outside my bedroom door….what is with the yellow line you ask?
It is a time line. The top half shows the development of mankind around the world while the bottom half reveals the history of the US.
At the end of the hallway is what they call the prayer room, it is set up with carpets on the floor and pillows as chairs along the walls, this is a little more what a typical living room may look like.
This last picture is of my view looking down the stairs, from the third floor I think it is kind of cool, if I could draw it I would! Later perhaps I will add a picture of my front deck (yard) and a view of the house from the outside…. but It is a weekend and well everyone is outside and they already think the “American is out of place” I don't want to prove them right by taking pictures of my house.
Looks like a great place, Lora! I'm "thinking" of you often!
