I think it would probably take a few years.

I just have 1 question........

Those beans are not crooked. They have a certain panache, that's all.

Your place is lovely! We have been looking at octagon house plans off and on for the longest time. Your round house ROCKS!

Pony!

Perhaps a person with one leg shorter than the other.

Don't you remember geometry? The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. The old farmer saying is that you can get more crop in a crooked row than in a straight one.

Don't you remember the old song--There Was a Crooked Little Man, he had a crooked little house----------

15 feet!

It's from our property & when the 4 of us went looking, our daughters picked it out
Hubby & I looked at each other & our first response was NO WAY, but then we decided WHY NOT?! It's our 1st Christmas in our new place, might as well make it a BIG one!

THANKS!

We still have the trim work to do, but we like it -

Just a note of interest *we used the leftovers from the ceiling to make all the kitchen cabinets & island, the bathroom vanities and all the trim work throughout the entire house -

I adore the wood in the kitchen and the way the exterior looks like a royal yurt. Put your feet up and relax, now, you've earned it!
