If John has no objections, I took several pictures of his house when I visited, and will post them. The loft is a lot larger than the pics reveal, it will be a great place to retreat to on snowy days, the view from the loft area looking over the area below and out the wall of windows is something one needs to see to appreciate.
Looking forward to a return visit invitation from John, want to try out the pizza oven that is part of the fireplace.
