Joe Young's Tavern revisited

Good afternoon, evening, morning...that should cover it. The last time I photographed this house it wasnt finished, plus where it was located on the field it was too difficult to shoot the sides.  Long story short...I might be moving soon since we have an offer on our house. If we get the house we're looking at, my area will be over 3 times the size it is now which is basically a finished basement....sooo i decided to move stuff around since I'll be moving it all pretty soon. The side of the building with the door was taken from an actual civil war era building. The wall paper is also from that era. Notice the sniper in the widows watch.

    Captain, Sir! Is this a scratchbuilt structure? Whether it is, or it isn't, its a wonderful sight for these old modeler's eyes to behold. Great display of your skills.

    Richard: Fabulous work of art (as all of yours are). All the more interesting incorporating historic pieces into it too. Love that sharpshooter. Best, Dean
