I remember Karen's crib was in my folks bedroom for awhile. I don't remember when she came home.
I lived in the old part of the Nutwood house. The garage was built first, and the cars were parked outside. Duane had the bunk house out back. When the new house was built Duane and Anne had their own rooms, and I slept in the annex which was one big open room with hand made closets in it made out of plain plywood and lumber painted mint green. It was just temporary while the rest of the house was built. It had an apex roof and the closets were like 7.5 - 8 feet high with built in shelves and an area for hanging the clothes up. They were 12 feet long and there were two of them. There was a separated sleeping area, a finished kitchen and dining area on one side with a room on one side separated by a wall for the bathroom where there was a commode and a shower. On the other side was a laundry area. It was on a 20 by 20 foot slab that came up against one side of the annex and the other was the front of the house. The house was an L shape.
A contractor built the custom house. The new house part had a large vaulted ceiling and you could hear the rain pounding the roof. Also a big fireplace that opened into a great room. The kitchen was off on one side separated by cabinetry.
[It] had 2 independent living areas with bathrooms and kitchens in each one. You could have had 2 complete houses that were built.
