I came home from work today thinking I was going to un-trash my house a little bit. Instead, I spent a long time writing an obituary for a good trail friend. He had moved on to other things in recent years, but over the 15 or so years of his involvement with the North Country Trail he made a significant impact on its growth. The house will wait... it always does.
My great find on the walk from the other day was a wonderful solution for what to do with the big ugly stump right in your front yard!

It's cute and creative, and a lot less trouble than having the stump ground down or pulled out.

Don't you just want to go inside?

so sorry to hear about your friend.
That stump is awesome. I've thought about starting a fairy garden in my yard somewhere but looking at all the things they have in the stores I see that a person could spend a fortune on it and I really don't need that temptation :)
That stump house is both clever and creative.
Seemingly little things like this fairy house are the things that can keep a person going from day to day. Exactly the type of thing I look for when I'm out.
Creative but not my style.
