this is how our cottage looked when we bought it. the side of the cottage had the furnace and water heater in the little room.
this is the little room below, then the oil tank was below the bathroom window and the storage room was beside that with that ugly roof between.


this is what it looked like in the winter with the propane tanks   
 this is it with the siding on it
 and with the oil tank gone and with the little roof gone and the storage room gone.



the new bathroom window and back door 
 the storage room is gone to make way for a back deck later to be a screen porch
 now the siding is all finished on this side.  It just leaves the back of the house to do.
 this is a new picture of the cottage with a new screen tent so we can sit out and enjoy the lovely breezes next we will be fixing up the outside of the deck to make it look nicer, lowering the railing and getting rid of the lattace work on the bottom. Not sure what we'll replace it with but I'm sure we'll figure it out.

 Isn't it just lovely.  Alan has done such a wonderful job at all of this, I've helped where I can, mostly painting and holding boards etc.  I wonder what he'll find to keep him busy next summer?

 Oh yes he also put in a front walkway and steps.
We have been enjoying our walks on the beach as well as working on the cottage.
We are counting down the days til our wedding day, 19 from today.  I'll have to post some pictures for you all to see, if we get any taken.
Well that's all from us at Sanddollar cottage
