Tree-pi

When I'm not  reclining the luxury of my converted carriage I shall holiday in my own private tree-pi. That being a primally darling tipi-esque hut high up in the trees where I can go huckleberry picking in the summer and chanterelle mushroom hunting in the fall. If I can't build my own then Cedar Creek Treehouse shall be my first stop. "Imagine waking up to the music of a mountain stream flowing by your cabin -- except that your cabin is 50 feet up in a giant cedar tree with a view seen only by the birds.You're living in the tree canopies of a lush evergreen forest. You can see for miles. A great blue heron glides silently over the rushing creek far below. The sun splashes through a skylight and illuminates a mammoth tree trunk growing straight up through the floor of your two story treehouse and disappearing through the ceiling." Doesn't it sound dreamy?

Carriage Hideaway

As I revealed in my first Hostess post I have a real fascination with trains especially those of the olden days and black and white movies. After spending too much time on the internet I came across a site that sells old heritage carriages and I've decided to buy an old train carriage and convert it into my personal haven. Comfortable recliners, velevt curtains and an old movie projector to have all the classics flicker across the window panes...
