Title: Interesting Tree House On Megan Road
Post by: Henry on July 05, 2009, 08:37:43 AM

Elisabeth Kirkpatrick invited me to come over and take a photo of the round tree house that her husband is building.  I tried to find a time between the rain drops to go over and take a photo, so went over yesterday afternoon.  Nobody was home, (If I went to the right house, that is) and I took a photo from a distance.  I try not to invade people's privacy or aggrivate ugly dogs with my camera.

Anyhow here is the photo I took - Elisabeth has a daycare center, so suspect it might be for the amusement of her little guests also:

I may go back at a later time - It is a fairly steep hill to get to it, so may or may not try to climb it - Maybe I can get John or Elisabeth to take a photo for me.

Next time you come over, I'll give you a ride in the tractor up to the site. You really should see the view from up and above! The framing for the roof should begin soon, if the weather is kind to us, zip cord, rope bridge and connecting platform should also be coming towards the end of the summer. Darn this rain!

I appreciate the ride up the hill - I don't do well in grades - While I was taking a photo there and near Elaine's of the brook, unbeknown to me, it was raining cats and dogs at my house about a mile away.  I then went down to the village and took some photos and no rain there.  Really scattered showers.  Sounds like quite the tree house.

The Hollow seems to have its own unique micro climate. Frosts more, heavy snow fall, and the rain, well you know how it is. If you don't like the weather wait a minute and it will change.
