Harvest Table



When the ceiling/roof fell in we salvaged the old ceiling joist and had a friend build this table.  Our house had vigas (round logs) originally holding up the ceiling with a flat roof, as did most of the old adobes.  In 1947 the vigas were taken out and a pitched roof or territorial roof was put on with tin roofing.  I put many coats of linseed oil on the table, now it's ready for dancing on!
Eventually we will make some benches.... chairs are too expensive.
