Dining

Kitchen, food preparation and an area for conversation all overlap at the dining table. Yellow and green were Lois' favorite colors. Her fully stocked kitchen hasn't changed much since Kurt's Uncle Herman upgraded the cabinet work in the late 50's or early 60's.

Stairs

From the living room, the rustic hand rails for the stair are far superior to the previous access to the loft-bedrooms: a ladder. Carol, Beth and Barbara will offer many stories of bedtime departures which involved climbing up to the two second floor bedrooms.

Fire

Heating with the Vermont Casting / Scandia woodstove requires the ability to make a fire. It's not hard, really. Once underway, the woodstove offers efficient, radiant heat and a warm view of the orange flames in the firebox.
Outdoors, a Weber grill is intended for more rustic meal preparations. In the kitchen, an electric stove works just fine for cooking everything else.

Daydreaming

The open rafters display the swirls and knotholes of pine planking that Kurt and his father Samuel placed onto the steep A-frame. The driftwood mobile came from Green Lake branches that Carol & Tim struggled with to make balance. A more contemporary addition is encouraging ventilation. But not surprisingly, using appropriate and limited technology has been part of the philosophy of Camp.
