Log cabin

[Charlie B]

In 1965 we rented the old farm house on my mothers cousin's farm. It was a 2 story log cabin but it was sheeted with sawn wood, some of the planks were 24 inches wide. It had a cellar and the floor beams were logs about 12 inches in diameter.  The well was in the cellar too. Sadly the people that bought the farm tore it down.  I regret never getting into the attic but to be honest I was afraid of what I would find. Being sheeted you couldn't see the logs. Our rent was 25 bucks a month and there was a gas well on the farm that supplied us with free gas too. One room we stripped the wall paper and found old newspapers had been put up first right over the planking that covered the inside walls. Needless to say the wiring left a lot to be desired but there was a brand new kitchen and bathroom. 
Don, this has brought back memories I had forgotten. Thanks.
