My beloved "Cabin in the Woods" (pic8.co)

Located in the Western Maine Mountains. Cedar pole roof frame with 2x4 walls, shiplap and battens.

Built by Dad and me in the fall of 1977. 4 seasons of fun here!

Sleeps up to 8.

Overlooks a small brook trout filled pond (on the right) at the base of a tall mountain. The stream exiting the pond travels behind the camp along the back property line. We used the stationary part of a duo-pane sliding glass door mounted sideways as a picture window facing the pond and mountain.

No electricity. Refrigeration by an old 1940s Servel gas powered refrigerator. Gas lights, gas cook stove. Woodstove for heat. Uninsulated. One seater Outhouse to the left just out of picture view.

Oh, the stories I could tell...

It sure is, If no one fessed up though I would be planning something for everyone else after something like that ;) Nothing that could hurt anyone and just fun or slightly annoying. Like, you go to look for a sock and most of them are missing. Only to be found in the freezer or something. If you are one of those people that buy "matched" socks of various types then they will suddenly be mismatched and you can't find the other side so now you are wearing mismatched odd socks for a week.

We short sheeted the Engineering Director's hotel room bed, put powdered Jello in a circuit designer's hotel room bed at an electronics show about 35 years ago when I was much younger and far more foolish. There were a lot of pranks, and drinking going on that week.
