one bedroom too many

The design is simple.


Almost Spartan.


A boxy living room with a kitchen to the side, and fronted by two bedrooms with a bathroom in between.


But I liked it the moment I saw it.  It was exactly the size a single guy could effectively use.  Maybe with one less bedroom, even.


Let me show you around.  But first things first.


Wednesday's post was topped by a photograph of the house's small courtyard.  Filled with landscaping, space for two vehicles (if the vehicles were parked by a parking lot attendant), and a laundry area.  The space would feel at home in Barcelona -- where I would feel at home, as well.


But you didn't stop by to see where my truck lives.  Let's talk about my space.


I had hoped to post about three photographs.  But Blogger is not a very photo-friendly program.  Plus my internet connection in this motel is slower than dialup.


You have seen the side of the living area where my computer is located -- and the bedroom next to it.  The photograph at the top of this post shows the rest of the place.  The living room.  The kitchen.


And there it is.  More space than a single guy could use.


On the other hand, I don't spend much time in the house.


We will take a look where I do spend a good deal of my time -- the garden.
