Log cabin – Farmhouse

You know, it’s these homes with simple designs that I find most visually striking.
Take this cabin for instance… I doubt if there is another one out there like her.
There are no fancy details to be seen, and no faux embellishments have been added, and yet… this home has a bold appearance about her not seen on modern houses.
I would think a new home built with these lines and using high quality materials, like perhaps… a slate roof, antique logs, and a timber-frame addition, would make for an incredible dream home.

Wood… an amazing material

I do marvel at how everything that a family needs to build a farm is provided by a group of trees… even the fencing seen here is all wood.

Think outside of the box

Why not consider doing something others would consider crazy?… be frivolous!
Be assured that practically anything that you can build out of stone will be beautiful when done.

Nope, that’s not a Toyota, nor a Nissan truck.
That’s an early American made means of hauling!

A very nice barn… sometimes referred to by city folks as a “cow house”. lol

I have a hard time imagining a more attractive barn than this one.

Maybe, we need fireplaces

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.
