What an appealing shot Joni! The old and the new. The colours in the cabin and tree compliment each other.

That is the coolest picture.  I am with Richard.  What is the story of the cabin?  That would be a great post.

Joni--There is a story here, but I am not sure what it is---The tree does not look old enough to have been planted when the cabin was in use, but maybe the historical society planted it when they took over.  Really pretty combination for your picture!!

Joni, love this picture!  Makes me think of when I was a kid growing up in Rough and Ready, CA.  Our neighbor had a smaller version of this and we used it as a playhouse!
