A few of the log buildings I photographed in the Old Pioneer Village at Spring Mill State Park a few weeks ago. I'm especially fond of this small outbuilding with the moss laden thatched roof.
This one room log cabin was sitting right as you walked into the village. I tried to imagine living in this one room log cabin and simply can't get my thoughts around it. I'm guessing it's about 12 x 12 maximum with a fireplace and a few windows. Don't think it had a back door. No bedroom, obviously you'd had to use an outhouse. Although I don't remember seeing an outhouse anywhere near this cabin.
Seeing these old pioneer buildings surely brings one to appreciate having a home with several bedrooms and bathrooms and a great room to boot. What do you think? Could you handle living in this year after year? If you think about it, the people that lived in this village just might have thought they lived in mansions. I'm ready for the weekend. ENJOY!

I think small spaces are coming back, but I don't think I could handle this small! That roof in the first is so green - it looks like a gnome's house. (Also love the window reflection.)
ReplyDeleteThese sure are great subjects. I like the effect giving it a dated look. Nice work
ReplyDeleteThat is small! I like the moss on the roof.
ReplyDeletesmall but beautiful, I wonder if the people that lived there were happy with the small spaces
