Just the basics…

A log cabin.
A stone chimney.
A front porch.
A door.
A window.
And four rocking chairs.

Regardless of the season, a cabin looks great
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T09:46:16+00:00
Just a reminder…
Spring is less than two months away.
And then, next up, is Summer.

A cabin with character
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T09:46:15+00:00
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.

After all these years
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T09:46:11+00:00
After all these years, and a fine partial restoration, this cabin still stands proud and straight.
And… she’s mighty attractive I might add.
All she needs is her missing chimney restored, a new front door, and a few windows and then it’s time to move in.
And, oh yeah, a porch on the front would be so nice… you just have to have a porch. 🙂

There is no shortage of old cabins to save or salvage
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T09:45:47+00:00
The mailbox still stands out front, but this cabin has long been abandoned as a home.
She looks a bit sad doesn’t she?
Nobody wants her.
🙁

Roof bracing
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T09:45:34+00:00
A cute little log cabin with some extra bracing to support the roof overhangs. I suppose this is a northern (perhaps Canadian?) cabin.

Easy on the eyes
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T09:45:31+00:00
Here we have a cabin with a “wine bottle” chimney.
Notice the “handmadeness” of this entire cabin.
By avoiding manufactured materials (and the overt perfection that these materials achieve) we have a cabin here that is… well… easy on the eyes.

She is not symmetrical
Noah Bradley2019-06-29T09:45:26+00:00
Notice how the center door and window are skewed to one side of the center of this cabin… and ponder, if you will, the affect that this change has given to this log home.
I imagine the reason the builder did this was to be able to create two equal size rooms within the cabin. He ignored the urge within most of us to make the home symmetrical, which tends to make a home “formal” looking and instead created… “charming”.
