Tiny Home?
We bought a used tiny cabin from some nice folks in mountain brook for $800. Only 8x8. We'd been exploring options for a camping / weekend stay type solution for our property which is 90 minutes from our main home and think this will be perfect. Also we'd been wanting a place to store a few garden tools we'd prefer to keep dry and not stolen. Had the cabin moved 90 miles by a tow truck company for $400. It's a bit teensy and empty at the moment, but thinking about putting a tiny wood burning stove (like you see in boats) for heating and some cooking, a futon and hammocks for seating and sleeping, some solar panels for power, the upper loft for storage, a canopy, picnic table, and grill (or Cobb stove?) for outdoor living space, an outhouse and potentially an outdoor shower for an outdoor bathroom.
A friend of ours built his grill from scratch using river rocks and I think it's just beautiful (pictures to come of that).
These first two pictures are the before shots before we bought the place.
Moving day:
Cabin in its new home (little knocked up from the move but help together rather well). Note: always make sure grounds super dry before moving these things. Truck for stuck. Neighbor with tractor came to the rescue but it was a bit of a mess. "City people" mistake.

Nice Quote & Architecture

| Falling Water, Bear Run, Pennsylvania, Frank Lloyd Wright |
"He who permits himself to tell a lie once, finds it much easier to do it a second and third time, till at length it becomes habitual; he tells lies without attending to it, and truths without the world's believing him. This falsehood of tongue leads to that of the heart, and in time depraves all its good dispositions." - Thomas Jefferson
