Cabin Fever

{Plus Five Links Worth Clicking}







Just back from a much-needed trip to the wilds of New Hampshire with the huz and a crew of nine wonderful friends. On Sunday afternoon as everyone napped off their hangovers P. and I hiked up to the one-room board-and-batten log cabin his grandparents' friends built back in the late '50s. Off the grid is a euphemism here; the outhouse is a slippery scramble down the hill and there's no electricity, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't start researching build-your-own cabin plans as soon as we got home. You see, we're aspiring to graduate from the Scamp to a slightly larger structure, maybe something that even has a foundation if you wanna get fancy about it. We've got cabin fever something turrible.

Speaking of cabin fever, some links you may or may not have seen floating around the web which either way deserve your immediate attention. Pour another cup of coffee and prepare to lose the next hour of productivity:
