- Abstract:
One of the best things about having a house on a beautiful island like Nantucket, Massachusetts, is that the whole family can be around for the entire summer. In planning the new house, foremost in the author's mind was how best to accommodate the whole family. So when the whole family sits down together to eat those Victory Garden vegetables at the long New Yankee table, it's like all the years spent by the author professionally and personally come together. Inside the house, it was pretty basic. The author referred to it as wooden tent. The tiny wings housed a dining area and a bathroom with laundry, and in the center was the living room. A spiral staircase led to an open loft, the only sleeping accommodations for the whole family. The house did not have a proper kitchen. It was perfectly suited for modification because it was built entirely of wood.
