Chickee is the new word of the day.

I’ve seen these but not lately.  This for where it is located would be cheap to build.  If they say necessity is the reason you can sure put this one on the menu.  I bet ya this one was difficult to build with the tools at hand.  Anyway the meaning of (chik’e) is a Seminole Indian house built on stilts, with open sides and a thatched roof of palm leaves.

Hi James.  I didn't realize that they built semi-permanent dwellings.

When I first saw the word, a different meaning showed up. More in the line of what Ginny mentioned.

Thank you for sharing Chickee with all of us.

I've seen some gorgeous homes on concrete stilts out on Pine Island in Hernando County, Fl. but no thatched roofs-for sure.  They could be called Chick-Elites. :-)

Hello James - a trip in the ActiveRain TimeMachine AKA the Archives takes me back ten years to a time before you must have shared profiles of people from history.  This is a nice treat - I like increasing word power too.
