A log cabin… the perfect home for a wooded site

I can think of no better home to have in this location.

Log cabin back porch
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:13+00:00
Now that’s a back porch.
Years ago a back porch was more than a place to sit and reflect. During the warmer months of the year there was plenty of kitchen and laundry work that needed to be done… mainly food preservation of the crops that would sustain the family throughout the Winter and coming Spring. It was much more pleasant to be doing these chores out on the porch where the heat from all the fires needed to can and heat water didn’t make working so unbearable.

A truly remarkable log outbuilding
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:10+00:00
This structure is an easy build, with a minimal amount of materials, and is so attractive, and would serve many purposes… from storage to a guest house. Why more farms don’t have one of these is beyond me.

Wide hewn logs
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:06+00:00
A cabin with huge, wonderful, logs.
All hewn with an axe.
And, with half-dovetail notches in the corners.
Large trees were common back when most of these historic cabins were built, and still today wide logs are available with a little bit of looking. I’ve wondered about why more cabins were not made of wide logs like these are, and even wider ones… the only thing I can come up with is the practicality of working with logs… it’s much harder to hew a really wide log… and it’s much harder to lift a really wide log.

Log cabin abuse
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:23:03+00:00
Help me!
My trim has been painted an awful shade of yellow.
And, I’ve been surrounded by vinyl covered cubes!

A desert cabin

Yes, it’s true, there are even log cabins in Phoenix, Arizona.
This replica is of an original pioneer cabin.

A cabin nestled near the woods
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:22:57+00:00
We had heavy frost last night here in Virginia.
Fall is REALLY here now.
I do love the Fall colors.
And, flannel shirts.
And, lighting that first fire in the fireplace!

Create your future
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:22:56+00:00
A dream home doesn’t need to remain a dream.
Where do you see yourself five years from now?
There are only two options… make plans, or make excuses.
Decide what you want, create a plan, and then… take the next step… and then the next one… and then the next one…

Celebrity log home

Tim McGraw- Faith Hill own a log cabin… not what I would consider a modest cabin… but nonetheless, she is an old log home.

A simple log cabin… a timeless design
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T10:22:49+00:00
Isn’t it amazing that a home can be built with no intention of impressing the neighbors, but ends up impressing everyone, for over a century?
