We added some red to the farmhouse over the last couple of weeks.
A red roof and a red stove!
Walter, the Aga installer, came and spent two days putting our Aga back together.
It is full of insulation!
After Walter got everything adjusted, Donnie and Steve installed the stovepipe
and turned on the burner.
The Aga is beautiful and ready to cook my ham for Thanksgiving.
Donnie, Steve, Kenny and Joey finished installing our red tin roof.
Now we just need siding, doors, columns, steps and grass!
While they finished the roof, we were hiking the Grand Canyon with
Tom's brother Sonny and his wife Gladys.
It took us 9 hours to hike down the South Kaibab Trail.
We spent two nights at Phantom Ranch at the bottom and
it took 10 and 1/2 hours to hike back up the Bright Angel Trail.
I didn't think we'd ever make it back up, but we did!
so now yu can play cat on a red hot tin roof tina !
ReplyDeleteI don't think I'll get up there, Dietmar! Even though the guys tell me that the view is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI love love love love love the red! If the AGA Legacy had a bright red, that would have been my first choice.
ReplyDeleteOh, enjoy, enjoy! We've had ours just under a year (claret 4-oven) and we are loving it. Aside from the braises in the simmering oven, which are really sublime, our favorite is good old roast chicken in the roasting oven - the Aga does something to the skin to make it perfect and crispy, and keeps the meat moist.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your Aga, and happy Thanksgiving. Thanks for sharing the pix. (Elaine from Agalovers Yahoo group)
Congrats to you on your new Aga! May you spend many happy years together.
ReplyDeleteYour farmhouse is lovely and the roof is spectacular.
