Quick stop at the barn at lunchtime, with only a cell phone in hand.  Will get a chance to take real photos this weekend, but wanted to show you how the (new! big!) windows look...

Pardon the composite shot -- will get a less wonky one tomorrow :)

Although we came up against some resistance in the planning stages, we're really glad we lengthened the windows;  now we can actually see the beautiful views!  And the barn does look less barn-y, it's true, but it still looks appropriately old-timey, I think.  Like a schoolhouse, perhaps.

The living room area from my studio -- it's amazing how much light an extra 18 inches of window provide!  The fog had just burnt off when we were there, so it was still a little gray.

Eastern-facing windows in what will be the dining area...

Brandon and Tai were just starting on the west side when we got there -- these windows are in the soon-to-be bedroom.  We'll look out at the courtyard area and the side of the 1700s barn.  I love this view.
