 there is a usable fireplace behind the couch between the 2 windows but I removed the mantel so the couch would fit, and insulated and sheetrocked over it, after we build a new house I will reopen it, so it can be put back to use, and use a more traditional formalized furniture setup, also I'd like to add some Bali wood blinds to help set off the floors a bit more,maybe this summer |

We have a 6 burner stainless, in Fort Laderdale, it was giving me a little trouble last weekend though, its practicaly new but, never used hardly, maybe the regulator went bad
I'll check it out next month or so......I use charcol here now, but have already picked out a stainless for here, for this summer,I'll keep the charcol grill for the corn on the cob, when it starts to come off I buy meat in 55lb bundles, so hope you like T-bones or Ribey

I quess I'll quit wasting space here with pics, the rest of the house consists of the laundry room painted antique (tanish), a formal dinning room 14ftx20ft painted (Medow green & antique), and bedrooms painted (Sky gray) a real light soothing color, with light multi colored berber carpet, the same as the rug in the foyer pic, one of the bedrooms has a operational fireplace, though I have left the 3 shelf antique mantle, I closed off the opening into the fireplace, since its in my little girls room, I'll open it back one day, as well
oh... and my computer nook in the dinning area, not really sure what it used to be thats it I quess, just another haunted house |

coral you might have an air bubble in that propane tank... its an easy fix... the heat and direct sunlight causes the air to rise to the top and you get a 'cold flame' .. low flame effect...
bleeding off the air fixes it... but sometimes you can blow out a regulator from the air pressure in the bottle.. can you take the bottle to your dealer and ask for an air bleed? solved many a problem exactly like you described this way... keep the bottle out of the sun.. i tell people to treat it as they would a baby.. a lot of care.... coral.... i wonder... do you think some people carry the 'haunts' with them wherever they go? |

that is exactly what it did, a cold low flame, the first 2 burners exnited closest to the regulator, then the rest lit (i quess) the piolet flame but not the burners, I lit the burners manualy, but it was kinda windy and they were burning so low and cold all but the first 2 went out, and the burner adjustments did not work, they stayed the same whether they were on high or low
so I went ahead a shucked the corn and boiled it inside, but was still able to grill the steaks, it just took them a long time to cook not sure if people "carry haunts" but ,I believe I have been haunted since I was a very small child,by different spirts at our other house about 3 miles down the road ,we had bought 5 acres that had been logged at one time but, long since grew back over, I sent a bulldozer(the largest one around) out for 10 hours to clear a spot for the house, I found reminents of a house existing there at one time, a old wagon weel (the iron frame) a horse shoe,hand type well pump, and bricks ....... I always had bad feelings there though, and never felt welcome |

 heres the grocery barn, where Franks picture hangs,I walked across the street to get the shot, they were dissing up across the field from me probably wondering what I was doing (LOL), they'll be done in no time with the size tractors they use now but the 55 acre feild across the street were I was standing use to be part of this farm the store has been there almost forever, though rebuilt of course, all that seperates my house and the store is a 5 acre field some trees and a highway, the highway was the path Sherman took, on his march with his army note the house next to the store it is in view of my porch and also a antique, Franks niece owned it the store owner told me but, she has passed away recently, and the house has been vacant for some time I'll zoom in on it from the north end of the house for a better look in the next pic, I'd love to aquire it ,as well, I'll have to talk to the lady at the store to see what they are gonna do with it, it appears to need alot of updates but is structualy sound in appearence |

 heres the antique house next to the store i zoomed in from the north end of my house, if you look real close you can see the "dinner bell" still standing in the front yard, this how they use to let the family know when to come in from out cutting fire wood,or the farm fields, to eat for lunch or dinner, or if the farmer had a visitor once again, the road in front of the house was Shermans path on his march

 I almost forgot the antique lightning rods, heres one of three on my house, the ball around it is blue, not sure what its made from when the appraiser came out the lightning rods were the first thing he put his attention to, and a black walnut tree in the back, about 25ft tall, he said don't ever cut down that tree since it will be worth over $100,000 dollars in about 120 more years LOL, it is a beautiful tree in the summer but, its kinda a pain getting up all the walnuts that fall off it on the ground ok, I'm done now .... no more pics
