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.

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.

Back to the land, and under a boat

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?
