once upon a time
this wee house was built
looking into these walls
I wonder why it tilts
the stories it holds
may never be told
but we can dream and wonder
~
the sun came out
and it seems Autumn is still amongst us
I love this vital time when two seasons dance
snow one day
hinting of winter
sun the next reclaiming autumn
reminding me that nature has it's own way
and we must learn to dance with what is
while wandering yesterday
we came across one of the more humorous 'No Trespassing' signs I have seen:

There are so many questions ... we have to listen to Mother Earth, she knows everything ...
ReplyDeleteThank you for your talent, your spirit, you make life a return to origins.
Tammi A thousand kisses.
Old houses, shacks, churches...they always open up the possibilities don't they? who lived there, what happened to the dwelling, to end up as it did...These are great photos Tammie and I agree, a humorous sign!
ReplyDeleteHappy Weekend, G :<)
It looks so warm and sunny, warmed me up too. It's cold and dreary here today.
Yes Tammie, I too love the dance between seasons...it is dreary and rainy here today but not too cold...tomorrow may be another story as they are calling for light snow...whatever Mother Earth brings I shall embrace it.
ReplyDeleteThe sign cracks me up! We need to be inventive to take care of some things, eh?
I always love looking through your eyes! :)
You remain a radiant blessing!
The mysteries of the origins of the house will probably never be known - our imaginations can fill in those blanks - what fun!
ReplyDeleteWe too are dancing between the seasons; frost at night, sun during the day ...
Soon Mother Nature will make up her mind ...
P.S. I LOVE the sign - we need more humor in the world!
I love the tilting cabin, and I had a great laugh from the SIGN, oh my... I should put a few of those around my land, what a riot!
ReplyDeleteHehe...cool sign, great poetry and nice pictures. A huff and a puff and the house will fall down :-) That is a picture with lot of history in it!

I was going to start philosophizing about the house until I read the sign and busted up laughing. Have a great weekend, Tammie! Tsup!
ReplyDeleteI always wonder who built the house that the earth is slowly claiming.
ReplyDeleteLove the idea of hunter relocation. ;)
what a lovely post. I, too, love dreaming & wondering... ;-)
ReplyDeletedreamy, Tammie

ReplyDelete...beautiful as always tammie! ~ & ~ with a twist of wit by trial! ~ thankyoU for the share!...
ReplyDeletenice blog nice post very impresive blog :)
ReplyDeleteI like this time of year too. Beautiful photos...love the sign!
ReplyDeleteMuch love
T-so much history seems to pour out of the photo of the titling cabin - beautiful colours and texture of the timbers breaking away - returning to the earth from where it came. Loved the phrase " two seasons dance" - such a great image. And like others I and Fiona really laughed when we read the close up of the wording of the sign. Thanks for all of that. Go well. B
ReplyDeleteBonita composición el las dos primeras fotos y un detalle curioso en las ultimas.
ReplyDeleteSaludos.
Big smiles when I saw our post in my reader this morning.
ReplyDeleteThat tiny house does look like it has so very many stories to tell. I love the line "we must learn to dance with what is."
Great sign!
That sign is perfect! Your photography is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteThat is a clever "No Trespassing" sign. Got to give the owners credit. Loved your Winter/Autumn shots too.
ReplyDeleteYou have to be amazed at those pioneers who traveled across the wilderness and built a home smack dab in the middle of .... well, the wilderness! What an amazing journey they took. I don't thing the people of today have the fortitude and bravery that our forebears had, such a shame.
ReplyDeleteDid you dare go inside the house?
ReplyDeleteSuch lovely scenery in these shots.
Sometimes I tilt a bit, too - but I also have stories to tell. Love that you're dancing with the seasons, Tammie - I'm in the long white wait here. (A slow dance of sorts.)
ReplyDeleteBeutiful post. Love the mountain with the snow.
ReplyDeleteThe old house was so nice, and I always wonder if the wall could talk.
Have a great week to you.
Love the old house.
ReplyDeleteI was shown a number of old wooden buildings up in Athabasca.Amongst them was a beautiful old Ukrainian wooden church over a hundred years old.
Great post Tammie.
Great finds! Seems like the tiny house would be a great match for tinyhouseblog.com -- would be fun to see it there. And I love the sign (and whoever made it up). We are definitely feeling the turn into winter: there are warmer days, but winter grows ever more insistent.
ReplyDeletethat house in the middle of nowhere is absolutely gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThat sign is hilarious!
ReplyDeleteLove the hut - so much faded beauty!
More lovely shots!
ReplyDeleteThat sign is one of the neatest 'No Trespassing' signs I've seen. I really like the picture and your words about the little house. The second picture is fantastic -- absolutely gorgeous.

ReplyDeleteStunning shots! I love that sign:)
ReplyDeleteThere is something kind of sad yet exquisitely beautiful about that house. That sign is hysterical. Just love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the sign, Tammie. Whichever season is winning out by you today - I wish you a good one.

Often when external homes collapse, internal homes become easier to find.
ReplyDeleteI love old houses like this. There is one that looks somewhat similar around here that I have taken photos of. They tell such a tale. I often wonder at all that went on within the walls while people lived their lives in it. And why it was abandoned. The one near here has a broken pipe in the basement that water constantly trickles out of, the remnant of the spring that once provided their home with running water. These little nuances fascinate me. And I Love the sign. What a great, and creative no trespassing sign.
ReplyDeletewonderful words...and pondering...the old little house...what it has seen, from the inside out, and the outside in...
ReplyDeletelove that Relocation program! ha! i hope it works! let the wildlife roam free...
nice post.. love this blog Tamie
ReplyDeleteYay...such gorgeous photos..beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteOh my! Looks like that house wants to float away with the clouds.
ReplyDeleteHehehehe, love that Trespassing sign.
