A Memoir of Challenges, Struggles, and Laughs

The unique tale of a humble, provocative cabin is truly special. It was a steadfast, mish-mash, accident-prone shelter through changing circumstances. Sometimes a grapple; other times a joke.

This story offers readers of all ages a nostalgic journey. It shows that true strength lies in enduring adversity with humor.

First of all, it was not built of logs. Oh, no. But rather stitched together like a patchwork quilt of four old berry cabins. A true sight to behold for much longer than was ever intended. But that’s just the beginning of its quirks.

This humorous and inspirational memoir captures the essence of resilience. It shines a light on how one family’s financial struggles were met with grace and positivity, like the time:

*The hot water heater blew its top at -11 degrees Fahrenheit with a northeaster blowing that wouldn’t quit

*The car kept going–smack into the partially frozen pond

*The roof split off the main cabin–with the kids inside!

Here, the cabin is not merely walls and a roof; it becomes a character of its own, reflecting the unyielding spirit of the people it housed.

But that’s not all!

Vignettes of the cabin’s creation and demise are in this book.

If you ever feel like life’s challenges are too overwhelming to withstand, “True Tales from the Old Cabin” is your beacon of hope. It affirms that people don’t change, circumstances do. As Mama said almost daily, ‘It’s all temporary.’
