We considered it when looking at retirement options but the heat and humidity in the summer was more than either of us wanted to deal with ... so we moved in the other direction (Northern Michigan). Fortunately we love the snow and I use those too cold to be outside days for my quilting and fabric fondling. I've always believed that when house hunting that you will walk into your next home and KNOW it is the one. Don't settle ... enjoy the journey ... the house will speak to you when it is the right one ... listen for it in your heart and mind ;-) Linda45th Parallel Quilterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09054316704528545846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-711492205565035422016-12-13T13:05:18.408-05:002016-12-13T13:05:18.408-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-57003871533131037832016-12-13T02:56:36.187-05:002016-12-13T02:56:36.187-05:00How lovely!

It is a walkout and is attached to a 3-season porch so in warm weather I have wonderful light. But all those windows makes my heart a flutter. Good luck in your hunt. I'm sure you will find just the perfect place to call home.Paula DiMatteihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08843001353053461443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-10414042257850208812016-12-12T11:00:07.179-05:002016-12-12T11:00:07.179-05:00What a find Bonnie I love that place.

I really enjoyed traveling along with you on your new cabin quest. I live in Florida and that is a dream come true for me. NO cold weather, no snow BUT I still do miss the beauty of the seasons and of course first snow and the deer in my yard up north. Through you I can have this without the downsides.<br /><br />We met on the Craft Tour of Tuscany in May of 2015. I was the one who got that really bad rash all over my body and got to meet an Italian doctor.

We have a long drive and several trails in our woods. After snow getting the drive open takes a tractor and time. While our husbands do that for us, does take time and could affect those spur of the moment trips, in winter. Trails/roads in the woods require constant attention to keep them clear. Not bad, just need to realize that going in.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04008971433169299311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-27291652966565207992016-12-12T04:55:00.728-05:002016-12-12T04:55:00.728-05:00Can I ask, What s a HOACan I ask, What s a HOAannieBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11307461661872722788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13569819.post-42804412740432361772016-12-12T03:11:37.824-05:002016-12-12T03:11:37.824-05:00It is a beautiful Cabin, Bonnie!

Hubby maintaining the drive is great but .... don't you go to the cabin early sometimes? Would this one mean he has to go first to be sure the drive is cleared?
