Dad/Grandpa's New Home

Yesterday (Monday 9/28) Ashlyn, Colton and I drove out to Galt...The place of my dad's new home.

Honestly I am having a very hard time with this move. Worried about all the changes that might happen to my and my dad's relationship. I guess we will both just have to work a little harder at seeing each other more; when before it was super convienient.

After seeing Dad & Cathy's new house I can see why they like it out there. They have no neighbors, have a huge piece of land, and a house with a ton of potential. I can see it in both Dad & Cathy's eyes. They look happy and excited for their new life out there. I can see the excitement in my Dad for all his new projects. Almost to the point where they don't know where to start first! Although I did hear the barn & kitchen are the first two projects!

Here are some pictures...can't wait to post as my dad makes upgrades...I think you'll end up wanting him to do a project at your house! He is an awesome handyman, contractor, everything man! Serious!

The end of the driveway...the barn on the right will be replaced with a new and improved barn...one of their first projects.

Another view of the barn and side yard...although there is yard everywhere...

Behind the barn. The property line is all the way near
the first line of trees in the back of the field.

Had to add some cute ones of little ash!

Back deck my favorite!

Entry way into great room!
Table is there now but will not be there is a formal dining room.

Wine cellar ~ will turn into a pantry. I love the latch!
Down the hall are the two guest room and a bathroom. Around the corner to the right is the laundry room and around the corner to the left is the second entrance to the house form the front.

Lots of rooms I did not post. As they remodel I'll add more pic's!
