Nice little deck there Iceman Looks like a nice place. I'll try to post some photos of my decks later when I get home.
Iceman and Icewoman's Door and deck
When we moved for CA back to Kansas City we purchased this Earth Contact home! VERY ENERGY efficient... All Electric and my summer bills including air, hot water ect ect runs anywhere from 70 bucks, to as high as 140's in the summer. Winter using electricity it can run as high as
the 140s also.... but usually its just under 100 bucks. Lots of energy efficiency things were incorporated into the building of this energy tight home.
We love it! Maybe not as much as bowling, but just the same in has a special place in both our hearts. We have remodeled much of the interior ourselves.... its been a labor of LOVE... might post some pictures of the improvements if interested....
This is the side of our house,,, and its our attic area! We installed a door level with the attic floor, then installed a security steel storm door, then built a small 8X8 deck to make it easy to take things into and out of the area we are getting ready to make a hobby room! Wife is a very talented Carpenter, Plumber and electrician,,, I am not bad my self! LOL YOU should hear us arguing about just what way, and how to do our projects LOL.

mainly a way to get in and out of room we are building... thanks
We wanted basically a way to get out of the room we will be building in that part of our attic! So rather then just stairs, we decided to build a very small, but easy to enter and exit deck,,,, we made the stairs leading up wide to that moving things in and out would be a piece of cake. We still need to put a hand rail up along and up against the house. We are going to have a large patio deck in front of the house soon! Will be nice to use when we have get togethers, and gamer parties!Originally Posted by Amyers
Its a nice small perfect for us house! We are making it bigger, by adding some rooms up stairs! Pretty cheap when you do the work yourselfs!! (
It's nice living in the woods!!! Lots of nature in and around our place! HOME SWEET HOME!

Well, my house is smack-dab in the middle of Suburbia, with nothing around it but other houses of very similar ilk. But we did put up an above-ground pool over the 4th weekend. No pics to post, but it's a great way to beat the heat!
Sounds COOL!!!!
POST THE picture if you would!! My wife wants one here, but, heck we only have about 4 months of that kind of hot warm weather.... But she usually gets what she wants,,,, hUMMM
Don't walk on Thin Ice!
Yup. "She Who Must Be Obeyed" gets what she wants. I'll have to actually take a picture, download it to my laptop, and then figure out how to post it here.
