Very nice Lee. But you’re missing a couple of rockers for the front porch. Maybe some doll house furniture?

Nice.
Looks like some old log buildings in the U.P.
They mostly have very low windows as well.
I have wondered why that is. Can you tell me?

I always wanted a cabin just like that on top of a hill in Fredericksburg Texas, near Enchanted Rock, as a retirement home. That did not happen, but it's still a great dream.

My family has spent more than a few vacations in that area, usually stayed at the Tin Star Ranch. Love the area. Is it still there?

It needs junk on the front porch so the pickers will stop there to buy stuff.

No doubt tedious but they look great!

Lee, I would be interested in seeing you create some sort of tabletop tableau, featuring one of your cabins as the centerpiece...then adding in various frontier era things like outbuildings, implements, some split rail fencing maybe, etc., etc. Maybe even a still. And furniture, of course. Maybe a wagon or a carriage.
