my memory of the lodge...when i lived in it...was different...of course it underwent changes...became the kitchen.. and so on....sunnyridge never stood still...it bent with the energies.... remember the big thanksgiving dinner... the pies carried in on planks not unlike the old flemish paintings....we had at least 70 if not more for dinner that day

In addition to the table,the back door is visible. Who remembers whose bed it is a portion of which can be seen on the left side of the photo?

I would venture to say it was you, Peter (and Betty) that claimed that little corner of the lodge.

No, Ted this was not t he spot we had. Our bed was opposite this. Almost, but not quite under the "loft" like structure that was slept in by Steve.

I count 3 bugler cans (we smoked either "bugler" or "top" tobacco)I personally prefered bugler and unfortunately held onto the habit for many years after.

It's possible at this point that it is no one's bed anymore, as the Lodge-to-kitchen conversion had already taken place. (Did people still sleep there after it became the kitchen?)...The top of the condiment table is one of those incredible Port Orford Cedar planks that were dismantled from that cabin up-mountain. The walls were constructed of those planks with long (10? 12?-foot) bolts vertically through them. The new kitchen table was made of three of them, much longer than this one, and took at least six folks to move. Kitchen counters were also made of them....On a trip to AZ, I went into a health-food store (in Cottonwood?) whose counter looked strangely familiar. I asked where it came from, and, yep, it was one of ours....
