The round house. In Gustavus. I helped Charlie work on this house and then got to live in it, No need for curtains. no close neighbors. Unless you count the Eagles that nested in the tree every year. It was such a wonderful time watching the youngsters take their first flights. Or count the Moose or Bears.

Bears know that big white box on the porch has frozen food in it so it was always a challenge to disguise it.

Moose cows are not very friendly so many times I had to wait for her and calves to move on before attempting to go to the house.

Telling stories takes time so while I work to add to them for now that’s all. come back again to continue the stories
