[Sequoia]

41. Love that house in the back. Where is it? I see a canoe too.

That sure is a big roof on that outbuilding. Why?

[ElsewheresDaughter]

42. The building is an old two room school house built in 1850's & the brown one is my two car garage

the back of the garage has a long roof...salt box style

The school house is in the Northern Catskill Mtns in upstate NY. It is the only house/building visible from my 23 acres of land. We are surrounded by thousands of acres of Forever Wild state forests.

the canoe is for the lake and stream on my property

[Sequoia]

45. That's just beautiful country. Lucky you. I love old houses with tall windows.

I hate these sliding windows installed in homes these days. Must be nice to get in your canoe and slip out on the lake and enjoy nature.
