After weeks of heavy stuff about war and peace, check out this guy's man cave ( I don't buy that this is for his infant grand daughter--that's what he tells his wife):
kentucky grandfather builds ultimate playhouse
A 12 foot by 12 foot playhouse on top of an old corn silo on a farm
in Oldham County, Ky., has been attracting hundreds of motorists who
marvel and the architectural feat, WAVE3.com reported.
The playhouse was designed and built by Rusty Combs for his
20-month-old granddaughter. The one-room structure comes complete with
air conditioning, running water, lighting and expansive views of “eight
or nine water towers” after the leaves have fallen from tress, the
report said.
Combs had long envisioned the playhouse, but never got around to
implementing the designs in his mind. Then, before his granddaughter was
born, he was intent on creating the “ultimate playhouse,” WAVE3.com
reported.
“It started out two years ago as a two-month project,” he joked.
The ultimate playhouse first had to be inspected by a structural
architect and he had to obtain building permits prior to a large crane
lifting the structure on its 50-foot perch. “People pull in the drive
and say this is the coolest thing they’ve ever seen,” he told the
station. Perhaps the only drawback are the four, 8-foot ladders it
requires to access the room.
“I hope she enjoys it for many years to come,” he told the channel. “Maybe when she’s my age.”
