My wife wanted to let the kids have it for a play house. I pick my battles and this one I won.

I can definitely see why your wife wanted it as a playhouse for the kids. It's beautiful. Glad you won though.

No plans. I'm a carpenter though, so i'm sure that helps.

I managed to finish trimming the exterior of the coop today, the on and off rain didn't help.

pic of the east side. this is the side the run will be on.

pic of the back (south) side.

pic of some of the chicks on the temporary roost.

As soon as the plywood dries out i'm going to start painting. It has rained almost every day for a week, with more on the way, so I don't know when that will be.

( I have plywood over the back and west side windows because I haven't made the shutters yet, and thats where the weather comes from.)
