This is the promised kitchen series. Apparently the last blog mentioning dirt floors and privy did little to disuade folks from questioning whether it is possible to have a kitchen in the "wild west". This is sarcasm and this is our kitchen.
The window you see looks out at a 50 mile view toward the Jemez Mountains. At night we see Los Alamos in the distance and Santa Fe at the base of our hill while we wash dishes. Not too shabby!
The center island and the pantry doors are made from old reclaimed wood and the doors were created, more or less, from old doors found in Central America.
Those bowls on the floor are for Jackson our dog. We do NOT make guests eat off the floor.
The area beyond the center island is our den and this is actually where we do most of our living.
These are the doors mentioned earlier. They make getting cereal in the morning kind of fun.
This is the last shot and is meant to show the door from the kitchen to the portal. Craig's grill is just beyond the door and is getting a ton of use. The opening to the left of the painting is going to the dining area and then to the entry hall.
Tomorrow we will try to dispell the myth that all of Santa Fe is brown desert. We took a short ride up to the Santa Fe Ski Basin and the Aspen were beginning to turn. All we can say is WOW! Check in tomorrow for some color in the mountains.
