The Cabin



Living Room

View from the back deck - nothing but nature.

"And the winner of 'Design Star: Country Cabin' is ..."



Yes, I built this fire on Saturday. I'm a raging flamer, FYI.

The cabin we stayed at this weekend was pretty much perfect. It had two levels, was clean-as-a-whistle, quiet, private and had fabulously kitchsy decor. We're already making plans for next year.

    That sure is a nicely made fire, from one flame to another.

    What a wonderful place to get away -- must be spectacular in the fall and winter. How can you bear to leave such a bucolic place and return to all that hot asphalt and cement in the city? Plus time spent with family that doesn't involve bloodshed, 911 calls or a visit from the local SWAT team is so rare nowadays.

    What a lovely place in the wood! And I agree with crazy4custer, after seeing all the spectacular beaty and quiet, it must be hard to go back to the city. But Im a old fart now, so I like quiter places.

    I didn't chop the wood (there was some firewood left there for us), but I DID gather up sticks from the woods to use as kindling to get the fire (AKA "fair", as Maddie and my Stepmom would say) started.

    I guess those 2 months of being a Cub Scout really paid off.

    XOXOXOXO
