My house was built in the 70’s. Uh... the 1970’s. We did tear down a wall and found syringes/needles and old, dried up pot. But YOUR place is a snake paradise. All those little seems.... I bet it is stunningly beautiful!! Personally, your house has more character in one little room than my entire house. All those lives and events that took place there... just history! Very cool!

YIKES!

I thought my mummified rat was a real big deal!

You win!

It’s not stunningly beautiful by any stretch of the imagination.

The family that had it for a very long time [my step-grandfather’s people] were infamously lax about maintenance.

It could be restored to a lovely log house but I’ll never be able to afford that.

An Ibizan Hound friend has a similar place and it cost tens of thousands of dollars back in the 80s.

The cost of re-chinking and re-mortaring the logs alone is insane.

Yeah, like the family massacred by Indians.
The woman who tripped on her long hem and fell down the steps and broke her neck.
Two suicides on the ridge beside me.
Loads of other people dying in here.

Real cool.

[eeeeek!]

;D

I should call the Ghost Hunter guys.

Bet they’d have a blast.
