Welcome to Cabin and Camp. We're building
a community of people who love small, simple spaces in beautiful places, and we hope you'll join us. This is a grand experiment
for me, so I hope you'll bear with me as I flounder around trying to make this a place you'll want to come back to
again and again.
We've
lived in our cabin now for almost 15 years, and during those years, as you can imagine, we've looked for advice and support
here, there and everywhere. I always felt that what the world needed was a website where cabin people could
share maintenance advice, animal control (non-existent, I know), recipes, gardening and decorating tips, fireside stories,
photo albums, and anything else we cabin dwellers could think of. But most of all I thought we needed lots
and lots of good company. (Not in our cabins so much; there's no space for all of us. But on this
vast World Wide Web, we can be one big, happy family. . .)
(NOTE:
Our Forum is finally up and running. Join us here or click on "Community" on the left. And we've got a
Real Blog now, with a place for comments, so join us here, too! Still working to make them better, but if you don't mind the mess, we always love company!)
