Good Fire.

Someday -- not in this round of construction -- we will have a fireplace at the cabin. Here are some of my favorites.

This Is It...

Pure Scandinavian winter perfection.

Change of seasons.

It's beginning to feel a lot like fall already. Hopefully someday our deck will look like this, and we will spend chilly fall evenings with a bottle of red and some good friends around the fire*.

*Might have to abandon the dream of an outdoor fireplace. After last years fires around the lake the fear of open flames is very real. I would rather not be the fool to start another round of fires. It's a nice dream though.

A living room.

Wow. This is the living room that haunts my dreams. Isn't it perfect? Huge windows, vintage stove, dark ceiling and texture everywhere...
