Hello Martin looks like you are happy to be back at the cabin, I own the old one room schoolhouse back in the hill country where I went to school as a boy ,I’m always happy when I get back there it sets close to a creek I feel at peace with the world setting there listening to the creek flowing and the birds . I almost forgot the school house sets about a mile and a half from anyone else back in the hills in Kentucky.I always enjoy watching you at the cabin.you have a great time at the cabin

It’s Saturday morning show time again with the new season starting off not to disappoint. You can tellwith the bounce in the step and the pep in the voice that our main character was so glad to be back. I’m sure once the cabin was in first sight that un scratch-able itch was finally scratched and a little prayer to say thanks was said. When the hardest part was aiming the water jugs right that left plenty of time to hear the birds sing, the stove crackle and the sound of rain on a tin roof. Welcome back sir, the cabin missed you.
