A neat and tidy log home rests on Wyoming turf. Note the decorative commode.
Wow, I’d like to take a look inside. That is just beautiful!… well, except the commode! Nice shot Mike!
Hi Lori. Might be hard to look through those windows. One would have to kneel down. Being small would be helpful.
Thank you.
Well, that’s one way to fertilize the flowers!
I’m a little intrigued/puzzled by the sponge brush hanging there. What a charming little place.
My guess is that it is just decorative at this point as I saw no sign of smurfs living there.
That a cute log home and that’s quite the decoration, right at the front door. Notice the brush hanging above, quite useful if whoever lives there showers outside.
All a curious thing. And not a hobbit in sight.
And a brush for said commode.
Yep. As to why, anyone’s guess.
Great! And a weekender too.
weekender……?
Like a cottage you’d drive to for the weekend. We did this as kids in the sixties, at Lake Vanetten near Oscoda on Michigan’s east coast and Lake Huron.
Ah, yes a weekend cottage. Nice thing for you to have experienced.
That s a nice log home. Even I would stay there for a day
I might opt for the hourly rate….
Lol
Yep
Except for the red neck toilet planter, very cool.
Agreed Lilly.
Yep…I’m pretty sure I could live there….
Thank you, Mike.
You would have to crouch to see out the windows unless you are 5 ft tall or smaller. You strike me as
5ft 11″
I would gladly fold my 6ft 2″ down a bit to look out of those windows…. I’m sure there’s a trade-off in there somewhere….
You a tall drink of water Scott.
And so refreshing…..
I might agree….:)
Love the character of this one.
Thank you David.
They look like quite big logs to me Mike!
Well a log home would be made from hardy trees. Hardy American trees. What kind of log homes do you have in merry old England, Adrian?
So its not a “Small Log” Home but a “Small Home” made of big sturdy American Logs.
We have log homes in merry Old England, we rent them out to American Tourists
Man I would love to drink a few pints with you.
One day my friend, one day.
It’s a lovely little log home… but I think you’re right about the windows…Looks like a one-roomer to me so it would dictate a simple life for sure…. Great if you can do it.
Once upon a time I imagine that would have been a comfortable home when people needed less and appreciated what they had.
I wish I knew what happened to that world! Today, as I try to simplify, there are so many more demands upon us that we have to comply to. Perhaps you log cabin there reminds us of that simpler time when it was possible…
I hear you, I absolutely hear you.
I’m thinking the commode might come in handy if you couldn’t get the door open in time… Not too sure about the brush unless the whole thing might be a detached sauna – but surely not with curtains.
Wonderful unique catch there! Has us all guessing.
I would sooner go behind the home than use that commode. But then again I’m a guy, so peeing is real easy.
(mine was purchased late 73 when the 74′s were already out)
74 orange VW
Did you go back and look that up? I’m afraid I have to rely on memory – which is not so hot these days… Was the orange your first? My first was a white one bought new in either ’64 or ’66 – can’t seem to remember that one clearly.
(I always did envy that male plumbing on camping trips and picnics
)
No, I remember things like that, for whatever reason. It was my first and only VW.
Wyoming. Log cabin. Sounds and looks good to me.
And very close to a river that has world class trout in it
What more can I ask for?? I’ve always wanted to live in a cabin by a stream or river…
Playhouse. I would play in this house. But I’d re-think the outhouse. Flowers smelling my tush is a bit ass-backward, dontchathink?
And I think it would tickle tush too, Tonya. (I went with Tonya for the alliteration only. I know you be Dezra, Dezra)
Tedezra? Tezra Tessa? Tess? Teh?…. Whatevah. I answer to almost anything….
How about hey good looking?
I’m always surprised and how elegant real log houses (NOT the prefabs) are.
Elegant is a good word for them. I agree.
I think the brush is another strong hint that the accommodations are primitive. Looks very tidy, even the bowl! Curtains and flowers indicate a genteel influence.
Someone mentioned that it looked like a play home and I wonder if that wasn’t true.
