Log Cabins

The earliest American housing that we can trace back to were log cabins in 1840.  As a matter of fact, the 1840 Presidential election campagin established log cabins as a symbol of pride. But before that in 1638, the Swedes and Finns brought log buildilng traits with them. And the Scots, Irish and Germans started their own version of log cabins in the eraly 1700's.  Now more than ever, people are purchasing log cabins as a secondary home in the countryside.  A getaway place to call their own.  A place with privacy, surrounded with mountains and wildlife. A secondary home where they can leave behind the clutter and live the simple life for the weekend.  Staying in a log cabin is very different from a city home. Truly a big change. A different world. A retreat. Some say they are closer to God. Others enjoy the wildlife and nature. Have you ever stayed in a log cabin?  I am sure you've had the same thoughts.  Although the upkeep on cabins are a little expensive, it's still worth the money for enjoying what they have to offer. Definately a place to relax and write a blog.
