Maybe, we need fireplaces
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:32+00:00
Whenever I have a fire, before turning in for the evening, and after having turned off all the house lights, I make sure and take at least a few minutes to just pause and stare at the flames.
I find that a room lit with only the light of a fireplace to be comforting and reassuring that all is well.
I imagine fires have been giving comfort to us all for many generations.
Maybe… we need fireplaces.
Maybe… they are more than luxuries.

Mark Twain’s cabin

This is Mark Twain’s cabin.
One of his many quotes…
“Plan for the future because that is where you are going to spend the rest of your life”

Back to the land, and under a boat
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:18+00:00
Here we have a really cool handmade house, built using locally gathered stone and salvaged materials.
Who wouldn’t want to visit a place like this, or perhaps stay a night?
But, I wonder. how many would choose to live in a home like this for next five years?

An old brick classic
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:17+00:00
A classic beauty.
I can’t imagine why she would have been abandoned.
But there is hope.
It appears that she was build well enough to withstand a period of neglect.
And who knows, perhaps one day someone will once again choose to make this house their home.

Rustic metal siding
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:09+00:00
This product… “Truten”… (of which I learned about through one of our members here at HandmadeHouses… thank you Chuck) is a metal application that has been rusted and sealed… has some real potential to create an attractive home exterior. I’ve yet to find an attractive home design coupled with this material, but I think the result of such a combination would be eye catching, durable, and low maintenance.

Historic home of Walter Reed
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:08+00:00
The home of Dr Walter Reed, in Gloucester Virginia.
One chimney, to heat the home.
The other, to cook the meals.
What could be finer?
