In case you were wondering...

This blog exists to encourage all those who have ever wanted--and needed!--a tiny getaway close to home. A workshop, playhouse, garden shed, sanctuary, mini-greenhouse, studio, home office; whatever it is you need, it IS doable, with some sacrifice, imagination, and compromise.

It helps if you're handy, too.

Looking at our place on earth...

...no wonder we see all manner of birds (including wild turkeys), the occasional fox, opossums, raccoons, and more, along with deer only a couple of blocks away...

Mapquest is SO handy...I knew the shed backed up to a finger of woods that proceeded up the hill and trailed on behind the houses on the little state highway.  Seeing it from the air REALLY makes me realize how much woods touches our place...

  1. Is there a link to the map or are you just telling us about it? I'd love to live near a woods and have wildlife, besides birds, visit. Don't want any mountain lions or bears though.

  3. I plan to do a little sketch, Joan! I did one for the front of A Naturalist's Cabin, and I think for One Square Mile--but of course those were of someplace miles from here. It was fun seeing the area from the air with Mapquest!
