Aaahhhhh....we did it!

Well, we've been working VERY hard this year on remodeling John's workshop and some other additional gallery spaces to create guest accommodations...creative, unique, luxurious, artistic guest accommodations. (You may have noticed the absence of blog posts.)

It was no little feat - but WE DID IT! The space is now happily and comfortably housing guests. A quick preview of some of the spaces that can now accommodate groups who welcome a creative space for their 'home away from home' and enjoy being surrounded by art....as well as our trememdous location overlooking Yellowstone National Park on the Yellowstone River. Here's a preview....there will be more to come once my fingers recover a little more!....
A view from the dining room looking into the kitchen with seating at the island.

The dining wagon with our custom made 'pack saddle chandelier' above and a grouping of my Yellowstone Squared plein air paintings behind. (The table is an antique restored luggage cart from Yellowstone National Park. We love reusing antiques in a new and creative way - this was one of our favorites!)

Double doors from the dining room open onto a deck perched over the Yellowstone River with Yellowstone National Park across. That's Electric Peak in the background - one of the highest peaks in Yellowstone.


Cruiser bikes at the porch entry.
We have such a great location...we're at the edge of the tiny mountain town of Gardiner, Montana with Yellowstone National Park and the Yellowstone River out back. So we added cruiser bikes to our list of amentities. The small and friendly town of Gardiner is easily accessible and a good spot to 'cruise'....to go white water rafting, get some groceries, some ice cream, go out to dinner, etc. etc.
