Let’s get serious…

A door, and a chimney
Now here is something you don’t see often.
A door next to a chimney.
It does look good there doesn’t it?
I do appreciate any opportunity I’m offered to gain an up-close look at a stone chimney.
I would think that the one downside to having a door here would be that anytime that door would be opened, while a fire was burning in the fireplace, that the draw would be affected and some smoke would enter the room.

The original tiny house
Some say that Henry David Thoreau was the founder of the current interest in tiny home living.
I have long admired Thoreau, and his book “Walden”, is among my favorites.
The idea of living free and simply holds a lot of appeal for this old boy.
But Thoreau only lived within such modest means for two years before moving on to a larger home.
Today many are starting with this size space and squeezing into it a kitchen, a bath, a laundry room, and a staircase.

A cabin with character
She is not the straightest cabin in the world.
And, the inconsistencies in workmanship reveal that this cabin was likely built by the homeowner and not a team of experienced builders. There is certainly no disciplined German workmanship on display with this fine old home.
That’s one of the things I love about cabins… they aren’t complicated enough to scare off anyone from building them.
