And so, that's just what myself, Cathleen and Dustin did one night...
We drive into Montana and head on up a mountain road. We decide to keep driving until we reach the end of it. At the end of the road is a state park, and just next to the entrance of the park is this abandoned cabin by a raging river...
The cabin looks to be about 100 years old...
The power of the current is awesome...
Through conversation Cathleen and I realize that we had each silently decided in our own minds who had lived there, and what their story was!
I pictured a older man who built the cabin himself, and lived there alone as a hermit to try to escape the memory of his lost love. (Oh, so tragic.;)
Cathleen cheerfully pictured a happy family living there, sitting by a warm fire. She wondered why they would have left. Perhaps to go live in the city, or maybe a rift in the marriage caused them to leave.
What do you picture?
Your pictures and stories just keep getting better and better!! :)
ReplyDeleteI imagine that it was the cabin of an old married couple. They were tired of the typical city life so they build a small cottage where they could quietly and peacefully live out their lives. Maybe they fell asleep to the sound of the water flowing by them each night. <3
I hope things are still going great. Love you so much!
I picture a trappers summer cabin. Easy access to water and possibly his trap line. With beautiful nights of star filled skies.
ReplyDeleteI picture a man in his 50's, looking to find meaning in his life. He built the cabin to "get away from it all" and while he lived there actually "found it all".
ReplyDeleteOne night as he lay outside looking at the stars, he had an experience of God talking to him, assuring him of His unfailing love. It healed his heart and his mind so much that he decided to leave this place available for others seeking peace. He went off to share his peace with others.
