  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. 🙂

    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.

  You would have to crouch to see out the windows unless you are 5 ft tall or smaller. You strike me as
  5ft 11″

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.

    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’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.

    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 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.
