January 29 - The Campfire Trail - Our New Lincoln Log Connection

January 29, 2024

Day 850 of the Adventure

Our Cabin at Camp Run-Amuck was visited by and declared "Approved" by the Playskool Lincoln Log poster-child over this past weekend. Yes, we had this young man (and his lovely wife) at our cabin for lunch and a waterfall tour. Of course the boy is an adult now and we were surprised to learn that our new friend, and now part of our inner circle tribe, had such a respectable log cabin background. 

Upon their arrival, Brad was quick to point out that our cabin even had a green roof to match the log sets. He explained to his wife Michelle that his dream was to build a real Lincoln Log cabin for the two of them using the same color combinations of the play sets. The reality of that dream may be close at hand for them. As it turns out, we learned last week they would be in the area looking for land to purchase and build their very own adult sized Lincoln Log Cabin. 

Brads wife Michelle has been a long time friend of the family and is no stranger to the "Treasured Times Cruising" family. Treasured Times is one of the boats our daughter and her husband Mike own and she Captains down in the Florida Keys. We visit as often as we can. (One of my favorite trips HERE). Brad and Michelle cruise with them as well whenever they can 

You may be wondering about the randomness of this posting. As you may know, Mike and Adreane helped us with our cabin about two years ago as we were trying to get is closed in and livable before we became "homeless vagrants" (yes, there's a story there) Here's a video of that adventure. That trip sparked yet another adventure. That of Mike and Adreane recently purchasing a "Backwoods Bug-Out" property not too far from us this past fall. Upon hearing that, Brad and Michelle, looking for a remote woodsy place of their own for a couple of years, got the inspiration to expand their search to the SW Missouri Ozarks. So, the tribe seems to be assembling itself here in the beautiful Ozark Mountains. We'll see how it all develops but I found it fascinating that Brad had been the "face" of the Lincoln Log playsets years ago. I'm tellin' ya........ Once you get the cabin life in your system, it never leaves!
