WP_20150113_004.jpgHi... This is my introduction post to let you all get to know me here on Steemit. First of all, I'm a disabled veteran of two combat deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. I'm also a tiny house builder and enthusiast who built a tiny house while still in the Army in El Paso, TX. 223013_685039781511542_1915514760_n.jpg 527116_625512827464238_1629556908_n.jpg 552478_588254461190075_481837096_n.jpg Since then, I had moved the tiny house to Tennessee where it sits on a hilltop property. 533609_685039491511571_1080389742_n.jpg (Hooked up and ready to go! Buy 'Hell-Paso'! I'm Tennessee bound!) 1512455_823245411024311_691441765_n.jpg (After arriving Tennessee, it was a beautiful trip through the backwoods to our property!) 15418_931487086866809_5209810031940778768_n.jpg (After arriving to our property, we had contracted a guy with a bulldozer to pull the heavy tiny house up the rough uphill drive to the top of the hill where the tiny house sits today!) 20181029_162644.jpg (A view of the tiny house as she sits on top of our hilltop) 18057629_1753763814639128_1549754943173867960_n.jpg (Some views of our hilltop) 18058157_1753763761305800_1535261453677690123_n.jpg 18193816_1753763751305801_7412183119671662767_n.jpg 18193983_1753763854639124_4120650585818242077_n.jpg After getting the tiny house set up on our hilltop property, adding the deck and other land improvements, it was time to get the inside done! Because of my disabilities, it literally took me an additional TWO YEARS to complete the interior of the tiny house! But, here are the photos of my finished interior of our tiny house: 20170902_141429-EFFECTS.jpg (The Loft) 20170902_141453.jpg (Some loft storage) FB_IMG_1514159222602.jpg (My daughter showing off the kitchen) Shower bump-out1.jpg (The 48 inch walk-in shower - created in the "bump-out" in the rear of the tiny house) New Hotwater Heater2.jpg (Shower works great! And, yes!.. that is natural slate tiling you see in this shower!) Tiny House88.jpg (Interior ceiling detail) The following photos are the bathroom detail: New Hotwater Heater1.jpg (Tankless hot water heater) Tiny House90.jpg (Compost toilet with shelving to the left of it) Tiny House92.jpg (Small vanity sink with additional shelving to the right of it below the hot water heater "closet") (Another detailed photo of the shower) Now, I will show you photos of the kitchen detail: Tiny House93.jpg (Looking at the fold up dining table from the living area) Tiny House94.jpg The kitchen sink with 8 foot countertop space with refurbished used cabinets below - I had hand made the framing for this!) Tiny House96.jpg (Looking at additional storage space at the end of the countertop area - the drawer storage was a chest of drawers purchased from Ikea and I had built it into this space) Tiny House97.jpg (Another look at the kitchen from the living area - which also shows the ventless propane gas heater I've installed here in the living room space under the t.v.) Tiny House104.jpg (A view looking out the kitchen into the living area) Tiny House107.jpg (Another detail photo of the sink and countertop area - very spacious!) Tiny House108.jpg (Our lovely fold-down dining area) Tiny House109.jpg (Another, COZY view of our dining area) The following are photos of our living area detail: Tiny House95.jpg (The shelving area you see here in the living area was where I had planned to build a built-in seating area; but, when with shelving instead... I like it!) WP_20170227_014.jpg (Another view of the living room ceiling) ...and my favorite part of the living room ceiling is the "antique" candle chandelier! Yes, it does NOT run on electric - just candle light!... WP_20170227_016.jpg In the future, I will be blogging about my solar and wind power setup since we are completely off grid here on our Tennessee property! It's very beautiful out here on our hilltop and we would not have it any other way! Hope you had enjoyed this introductory post of mine and my photos of my tiny house I've built. It has been a long process to build this house because of my disabilities; but, I'm very pleased with the outcome of the tiny house project. Please follow me, and upvote me to support my projects yet to come! I've also a dome shelter, AND a underground shelter with lots of food preps storage to blog about in the near future! Stay tuned for MORE TINYHOUSECRYPTOS adventures! Thanks for viewing!
