Can't we just live there?

Growing up I had a framed print in my room, above my bed, of the absolute most picturesque cottage you've ever laid eyes on. The title below the picture was just that, "Can't we just live there?". I find it an appropriate title for this next picture, one of the cutest houses I've laid eyes on around these parts in Wonderland. It's a bit of a jaunt from my house to this one as it lies on the outskirts, but oh, if I was going to change from City Mouse to Country Mouse, this would be my home of choice.


It's on just enough land, oh, probably 5-10 acres I would guess, to allow my husband to rescue as many dogs as his heart would desire, allow me to finally get a kitty for my own, and then for us to throw in a few chickens, a pony (dappled, of course), and a goat named Nan (from one of my absolute favorite movies of all time, Tammy and the Bachelor).

I'm sure glad that dreams don't cost a thing...

Oh yes! LOVE IT! Walk right up to the door and tell them you want to buy it - wether it's for sale or not. Then ask them to leave - IMMEDIATELY! please...
