I do love my own company, maybe because I need to be constantly communicating pretty intensely all week at work. So I'd happily take up the challenge of a couple of nights here. Although I reckon you'd need a torch & a brave front to wander out to the loo in the middle of the night!<br />Millie ^_^Milliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15408461724832141163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2066317770814487381.post-17890542771847295262009-08-23T02:23:03.995+10:002009-08-23T02:23:03.995+10:00That's definitely a shack, but it looks cozy a...That's definitely a shack, but it looks cozy and comfortable inside. I could happily stay there for a week if it weren't for it's position on the cliff. If it could be moved back away from the edge about 10... no, make that 20 yards, it would be the perfect place to unwind.Pamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10529448801131672183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2066317770814487381.post-24156326810566589872009-08-22T23:46:09.429+10:002009-08-22T23:46:09.429+10:00Hey Julie........I can't seem to find your ema...Hey Julie........I can't seem to find your email here, but wanted to tell you that your comment has soothed my soul - for hearing of other's struggle and knowing someone reached out to you and actually did something....a sincere humble thank you for sharing....this shack which I could hermitize myself actually is what set my mind and thoughts to the keyboard to post my feelings....<br /><br />with much love,<br />Anne MarieAnne Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11570313791042086593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2066317770814487381.post-35740784889742921352009-08-22T22:36:21.714+10:002009-08-22T22:36:21.714+10:00Dear Julie in Holland

Not everything has to be perfectly perfect! The house we used to stay in every summer at Cape Hatteras, NC (The Outer Banks) was most probably very shabby, but it was our home away from home and just perfect for where we were and why we went there: to relax and get away from everything. We had no telephone, no TV, certainly no computer (this was the 70's,) not even a radio (my Mother's rules) except on the beach at night during out bonfires. It was heaven and I suspect that the un-glorious cottage in the photos would be the same.Tamerie Shriver Hallidayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05520049303830446498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2066317770814487381.post-79985820833973142392009-08-22T00:56:31.587+10:002009-08-22T00:56:31.587+10:00Julie oh Julie ~ Can't tell you how much I'...Julie oh Julie ~ Can't tell you how much I'd love to stay there perched right against the sea. Have no idea why shabbiness appeals to me @ all but it does..loud & clear. Something about not having to fret about the dusting & cleaning & just enjoying the beauty that surrounds you. Maybe it's a throw back to the days of having a "play house" or a "tree house" as a child? Great post as ALWAYS!!
