four walls.

Posted on February 28, 2019 by beth

when hiking in the winter woods,

we came upon this dwelling.

house, fort, cottage, hideaway, castle?

“home is any four walls that enclose the right person.”

I think it looks sort of like a hunter’s ‘blind’.

I say the first floor is an outhouse and the second floor is for bird watching (or maybe it’s the other way around, in which case the bird watchers better watch out for more than just birds). 😦

Winter hikes are my favorite. I think it looks like a fort or great place to play. We have one that is still standing in our neighborhood that the kids play in. How cool you just came upon it. 🙂
