We decorate our Pub!

This is the first installment about our wonderful little getaway: our backyard Pub!

It is quite new in our yard-it is made by local Amish, and we had it delivered on a flatbed trailer.

It was a long hill to go down, but the driver made it no problem, and even angled it how we wanted!  How exciting- our own little "playhouse" for two little 61 year olds...

We thought we had made up the concept, when we thought to memorialize Jane's dad, Duke, by naming a little pub  Duke's Country Club and Irish Pub.  But then, going on line, I find that the tiny pub is a phenomenon in Britain!  What a surprise: we thought we had invented the whole concept!  But then, who really cares about where it all originated- all I know is that the whole concept, and bringing it to fruition is a whole heck of a lot of fun!!

Virtually everyone we have told about our new Tiny Pub has been immediately excited, and most respond with the statement "I want one too!!"

And so, I expect a lot of these little pubs to be springing up, a few here in our little neighborhood in Western Wisconsin (so we can "bar hop" on our tractors), and others in other states where we have friends and relations!  

Why not join us??  Make your own tiny pub!!

It is a lot of fun, and we are barely started yet- the sky is the limit in terms of what you can do to decorate and get it up and running, and since it is so small, a low budget goes a long way!  

We ran a heavy duty extension cord out from the garage, and have a small electric heater and a Mr. Buddy propane heater- together, they keep our Pub toasty and cozy- just right for drinking some real ale or apple cider, reading with a cat on your lap...
