Virtual Open House

We hosted an open house last week for the Pine Jog staff to showcase the improvements we made to the staff house fondly refered to as EM's Lab (nothing to do with Emily's name, just a bizare irony) where Emily is living.
Let's start in the kitchen. That is where the party always ends up and actually never left for most of the evening. We served Frank's Red Hot legs off the grill, homemade artichoke dip, and Em's famous Captain's brownies (secret's in the sauce, "wink", "wink").

It was a rather cool evening for Florida, so we had hot mulled apple cider on tap as well as the usual sodas.

In a previous blog we showed pictures of the closet (which you have to walk through to get to the bathroom....don't ask, it just works).

Another fun feature is the new sink and faucet which we lifted and mounted on a new countertop.

....campfire circle by night. As you can see above, it is definately a house in the middle of the woods.
On the right is Katie and Tracey, two graduate students, pictured here with Pat Welch, Pine Jog's Executive Director.

This is a picture of the door to the back patio with the EM's Lab sign. We use this area as a stage for one of our outdoor programs. It helps create some magic out in the forest.
