Homes

I spent the day yesterday, going to the grocery store. Most of my readers know that my husband and I spend the summers in a tiny mountain town, sixty miles to the nearest supermarket. I am having a bridal luncheon  on Friday for a friend's daughter, so I needed to stock up. I really like the small town where I go to shop. It is larger than the little town we are in, but still considered small; around 5,000 people. They have such unusual homes there, no two alike. These were all on the same street.

A sweet little log cabin, with very tall pine trees in front.
A tiny little place, with lavendar and green trim, behind a white picket fence
A well cared for stone house with a history plaque saying it was built in 1881 for a local judge.

It had a small guest house in the backyard, which in reality back then was probably servants quarters.
On the opposite corner, stood this tall blue Victorian place. I decided I needed to get on with my shopping, so these are the only pictures I took. There are so many more. A very interesting little town, Gunnison, Colorado.

  1. Great variety for a small town. I think I like the stone house the best. I'd even settle for a stay in the guest house.

  6. wow, that is a wide variety for sure! From the outside looking in, I'd rate the log cabin first. But all log walls inside can get to be a bit much, particularly in smaller cabins. ;)
