Up Mountain

This painting always makes me Smile "Up Mountain" is full of lovely memories.

     "Up Mountain" is what my daughter used to say around the age of 2 when we were out and about and she was ready to go home.  We lived in this tiny log cabin atop a curvy mountain road.  When we first found it the owners had been using it as a hunting cabin.  The walls were a dark green it was gloomy and dark.  When we decided to rent it I asked if I could repaint the inside.  I went a lil wild trying to brighten it up.  Pastel pinks, purples, blues, and bright yellow.  It became like a wonderland.  We painted the high open ceiling to look like the sky.  The strong log beams that held up the 2nd floor loft we're a perfect place to hang a swing right in the living room for our wonderful daughter.

   

     The large triangle window upstairs created a nice small area to place a baby bed.  Autumn loved looking out the window to see nature surrounding us a few squirrels and a large pileated woodpecker would visit her there daily.  We built the lovely garden out front for her to play in we filled the circular walkway with bright colorful tumbled stones.  There I remember using the pretty stones to teach her to count.  I could go on and on with entertaining stories about this painting and our time there but I will leave it here and hopefully if you see me around sometime I will happily reveal more.

Thank you and have a Blessed Day
