Very nice house, Griff! So cozy and old-fashioned. Looks like a pioneer cabin, with all the modern amenties. I bet the kids love that loft.

Maybe one of these days I'll show you mine. It's not nearly as picturesque, but we kinda like it.

All your work is amazing. I liked your fireplace and the bedroom placement and how cool to have a step ladder up to the attic bedrooms.
As a former country girl I loved every second of your video. You seem like a cool person too smart and with a sense of humor. Oh and mrs. Griff makes soap. I've thought of making soaps myself a time or too or candles. Seems like fun.

well, if we're resurrecting house tours, there's this thread, and UT did one a while ago too.

I'm thinking my goats may not be bright enough for such an OSHA flip off dwelling. Very cool concept though, I'm sposda be building another goat shed for expansion, so I'll trouble you not to put any ideas in Pete's head about suitable dwellings. :) Thank you all for the kind words, it has been quite an experience for us.

Sounds like more work than you have time for. Better stick to a simple plan...

Great job Griff! Looks really secluded, too. Which is top of my list for my dream home. You're a really fortunate guy.

@Glatt: thanks for reminding me of the other thread.

I'd live in that spiral goat tower myself (for a few days until the novelty wore off and I realised how bloody stupid and impractical it was).

monster 06-14-2009 09:57 AM

yeah, but we all know you're twisted

True words. I work among the humans all day, it is nice to get away.

being such a sporadic lurker, absent cellarite these days I'm glad this got bumped! great tour! I think I last saw some stills of the kitchen under construction.

And its cool to hear and see the Griffs! I'm diggin' the dairy productions. Any new work on the sunroom? :) Cheers!

Griff 06-15-2009 08:15 PM

Actually, we're thinking of doing "something completely different." That something is in the que behind another goat shed, my summer SpEd gig, my new Sp Ed responsibilities in the Fall, and continuing ed for further responsibilities. We may have another dairy goat or two in the offing, which will give Pete something to do if the economy keeps contracting. Please excuse me for now, I have someone to bottle feed.

Shawnee123 06-15-2009 08:48 PM

If Frannie Cesca ever wants to visit Ohio, I'm in! She is so damn cute.
