Find My House?

Wednesday I looked out my bedroom window and saw a white spot in the hills.  The ski hill surely wouldn't be making snow in these temps.  My binoculars resolved the white spot into a ... tent?   Of course!  This is Leaf Peeping weekend in the county.  The ski hill was planning on serving food up top  - probably use a tent for that purpose.  Taking the ski lift up the hill to see the colors has become such a draw, the ski hill owners start their weekend festivities on Friday.  I was there early enough to be the second one up on the lift.  Fantastic views of the neighborhood, weather perfect, no crowds.   I knew I could see the tent from my place so stood near it and tried to locate my house.  Couldn't find it.  Good, no need to close my drapes when I go to bed.  On the way back home I passed a new B&B just around the corner from the ski hill.  Our town's zoning committee had given it a permit earlier in the year and now there was a "Open House" sign - for Saturday and Sunday.  Neighbor Anita agreed to go w/ me on Saturday morning.   We got there at 11 a.m.   The original open house sign had now been amended to state "Noon to 5".    "Let's go see if they will let us take a look anyway." urges Anita.  That was all the prompting I needed and we drove in.   The owners were outside and welcoming to strangers (their 5 month old Burmese Mountain Dog wasn't so sure).  The first floor is an open living room-dining area-kitchen.  A hallway leads to a bedroom and a bath (with a huge shower).  Upstairs is another bedroom and bath.  It's got unique touches here and there and open cabinetry.  The view behind the cabin is beautiful - a small pond and directly behind it the back side of the ski hill.  Quite striking.  There is the little issue of being just feet from a cemetery.   The cemetery is small and old and not as well kept as I remember as a kid.  It is possible renters might not realize there is a cemetery at first.   There are no windows on that side of the house.  In the short winter daylight hours snow might cover the grave markers.   In the spring and summer there is a wall of greenery between the properties.  In the autumn ... well ... being next to a graveyard might actually be considered a plus.  Location - Location - Location
