A drumming group this Friday and an Oscars party on Sunday night will help us christen our new music/computer room. We have many helpful friends and tolerant neighbors to thank for the completion of this hands-on project which turned out just as we pictured it. In case you missed the progress reports, you can see them here.

People wonder at how just eight feet of addional space (thanks to a variance granted by the city) could make a house feel so much more spacious. We have to thank Luke Kautz for his helpful architectural hints. After the spring thaw we intend to deal with the damage the construction did to the landscaping.

The window seat in the new room holds lots of extraneous instruments while providing great seating for groups of drummers.
