So Close!

When you were a kid did you ever go on a road trip with your family and in response to "are we there yet?" your parents would say a "couple more hours," or "a couple more miles?" Two hours or two miles later they would say the same thing, again and again until miraculously, it seemed, you were there. That's were we are with the Harmony Barn renovation. We are two hours, or two days, or two weeks away from everything being finished. In the meantime we were able to host three writers who turned out to be the most patient, easygoing and enthusiastic guests. Two people stayed upstairs and we created a bedroom area downstairs in the barn for one. When we scheduled them months earlier, we didn't anticipate that the barn wouldn't be quite done yet. But Patrick, our contractor, made sure we had electricity, water and a toilet downstairs. Delays are inevitable in any construction project, so we are just happy that the crew was so responsive and that our writers were so gracious. After their week at the Harmony Barn was done, we are happy to say they loved it! Janet, Shannon and Wendy (the cookie lady), you are welcome back anytime!

Now that our guests have left, construction and finishing have resumed. Bathroom tiling is finished, kitchen cabinets have their hardware and the tinted concrete just needs a finishing protective layer. Electrical fixtures have been installed and most of the landscaping is complete. Appliances will go in soon and then the fun begins: setting up the barn with rugs, furniture and welcoming touches. Ready for gathering! Give me a call, or email, if you would like to learn more, or are interested in booking the Harmony Barn.  Jody 303-917-4627, jodybchapel@gmail.com.
