It was definitely built to last. <br />I bet that white teapot, creamer and sugar would have been a cherished possession. The all purpose room is the forerunner of our "open concept".

Sometime in the 50s the family covered the cabin with some kind of exterior siding but underneath is the cabin. It had 5 for14 inhabitants!
