McDuff's Manor

Welcome to McDuff's Manor

 

   McDuff and I live on South Boundary 
in a 1950's ranch style house, which has NOT seen alot of updates. :)   

 
This is our Before Picture of the backyard and rusty tin garden shed

I    

 
A long hot day in the sun with a round up sprayer and a paint roller and 9 gallons of concrete stain improved the looks of the concrete....

 

and an afternoon with my wonderful neighbors who helped me with some, creative painting transforming the garden shed.  Isnt it the cutest thing?!

Stay tuned for the inside of McDuff's Manor. 

My old Ky home

I grew up in a small coal mining town , Hazard, Ky. Deep in the appalachians, up a holler called Lickbranch. My mamas home was put together in the 20's and is comprised of two small camp houses that were connected, it has a hand hewn rock walled basement, rock steps, and a metal roof. There is a rock wall around the yard that was made from an old rock chimney that my mother had torn out because it was drafty and dangerous.
