(Yes, thank you, I'd like some cheese with that whine!) Looking at the picture, the middle section is my scanning center (with me in the center) It looks like her image got about 80-85 of the room, so she did quite well with a new device. So I've ended up with books sideways, on the floor, even 3 more shelves in the hall outside. The only problem with it is it's not enough. The beautiful shelving is what I got over the years from garage/surplus sales and inexpensive shelving because it's not going to be needed long (haha). I've ended up with a roughly 14' wide by 20' long room with lots of books. We're still moving along but nowhere as quickly as we did 15 years ago when we were still 29 years old. I STILL have bookshelves as drywall and books as insulation. Guess how much has changed since then? Not much. After 3+ years of having my library still in boxes and estimating it'd be five years before we would finish my room, my wife remarked that books were probably good insulation and once in shelves were as good as drywall in blocking the view. we reframed the small guest rooms of the 2nd and 3rd floors into residence and public areas including a couple of bed/breakfast suites.
Do you have any idea of how much lathe is on the walls and ceilings of a 16,000 sq ft, 45-room hotel plus main floor business? Laying the sticks end to end, about 46 miles. (There's a picture of this building HERE įollowing demo of the insides. Just over 20 years ago, my wife and I purchased a Victorian/Edwardian hotel in a small, rural SE Washington state town. Peter has quite the man-cave! I'm a little jealous.Here is some of the backstory on this room: His daughter was trying out the panoramic view on her new phone.

So relax, find yourself a warm kitty (or warm puppy-I won't judge) to curl up in your lap, sprinkle powdered sugar over those strawberry-topped Belgian waffles, and crack open a new book. As always, pants are required, unless you are wearing these pants.(minifigs not included) Here is where we can discuss, argue, bicker, quibble, consider, debate, confabulate, converse, and jaw about our latest fancy in reading material, even if it's nothing more than Elon Musk's latest trolling on Twitter. Good morning, Horde! Welcome to the prestigious, internationally acclaimed, stately, and illustrious Sunday Morning Book Thread! The place where all readers are welcome, regardless of whatever guilty pleasure we feel like reading (this has NOT aged well!). (HT: Peter (my friends call me Pete) Zah)
