Guest Bedroom

You'll get a wonderful night's sleep in the guest bedroom. If you want, you can open the window and listen to the creek. Even with a queen-sized matress there is plenty of floor space. All the bedroom have hardwood floors.

The closet is nice and deep to hold all your stuff.

The Children's Room/Study

The walls are a nice neutral color so you can cheer the room up with whatever colors you like. As you can see, we couldn't decide on one color so we used all of our favorites.

Delightful Dining

When our children were little we knew it was important to eat meals together. We didn't live here on Bear Hollow, but we had a lovely dining room. We ate supper together every evening. I always had a table cloth and nice dishes on the table.

We love to get together and share a meal as a family now. Only now the kids are married and we have grandchildren at the table. This dining room gives us plenty of room.

It's also a great room for a romantic candlelight dinner for two. There is a dimmer on the light so you can create the perfect mood.

This formal dining room used to be the living room. When we built on our wonderful sun room/living room we opened up this beautiful archway from the kitchen.

Best Room in the House

It used to be a two and a half car carport. Now it is a fantastic sun room.

The colors are warm, soothing and inviting.

There is a nice informal eating area - perfect for a birthday party.

Bench seats for extra seating when you have guests or for laying down next to an open window and listening to the creek while you read a book.

Lots of room when the family is over.

A dry bar (with water near by if you want to fix a wet bar). I use it as a work area to paint.

The stained-glass window hangs between the sun/family room and the formal dining room. (It is not included with the house - sorry.)

The dry bar has a custom top made of stained-glass. It fits music city well (notice the violins/fiddles).

It has a really cool, beautiful ceiling. People sometimes think it is wallpaper. It actually is painted. It took me a very long time to paint it.

An Explosion? on bear Hollow

I think we had an explosion on Bear Hollow! Here's what happened.

I have a realtor coming by today to talk about listing my house. So I've been cleaning and straightening and hiding stuff to try to make the house look really nice.

I decided I should wash the little bath mat in the bathroom. I was thinking how pretty it would be - all nice and fluffy and bright white.

Now, I've washed bath mats before - many times. So you would think I would know what I was doing. Well, I'm sure I washed this one like I have washed others. Hmmm, this may have been the first time for this one.

Well, anyway, since I'm an old pro at washing bath mats the only explanation for what you're about to see is that there was an explosion inside the washer. The top of the rug seems to still be intact, but the rubber backing that keeps you from slipping and cracking your head open on the side of the tub is... well... look for yourself.
