On this 16th day of January, in the year of our Era, 2013; I hereby christen this noble dwelling, a grand observatory of sun, sky, nature, and the elements as:
Sewanee, Tennessee.
After 3 straight days of cold rain, my foray into the visual arts came to fruition today as I hung my art piece on my castle wall. It is plywood with a nicely flamed wood grain which is highlighted by a two-tone semi transparent wood stain. It is triple coated with spar varnish to withstand the elements. The design is my own, inspired by some similar metal art that I had seen. It is roughly 9' x 7'. I thought I could hang it myself but I found it impossible. Evan Jones came to my rescue, it took us just a few minutes to hang it.
Long live Sky Castle.

I never get tired of looking at the ever changing fog and clouds in the land down hither. It's magic.

"SKY CASTLE" NICE....
WHAT'S THAT 'SUPPORT' FOR? LOOKS LIKE YOU'VE HAD SOME SERIOUS MOISTURE IN THAT AREA.
GREAT DESIGN...GREAT LOOK! HAVE I SEEN THAT 'SUN BURST' DESIGN BEFORE??
ON SECOND BLUSH, I THINK I MIGHT HAVE TRIED HANGING IT 'ASCENDING' INSTEAD OF HORIZONTAL.....JUST A THOUGHT.
