    I was out kayaking on the Connecticut River along my family's property the other day with my sister and we found this beautiful old camp / house and it had a for sale sign. it was on the vermont side, and my family's property is along the nh side. we jumped in her car and rushed over to see it right away. it needs a whole lot of work, but it has a gorgeous setting, including a swimming hole and the ruin's of an old mill and wonderful beaches and access for getting boats/shells in/out of the water. there are two houses [the other is not much, but a renter on the road], a large workshop / garage, 3 bedrooms, and this site on the sharpest bend of the Connecticut River. my sister bought it right away and now i have a fun new project in vermont! my family's property stretches for almost two miles on the other side of the river in nh.

      Whew! Boy, whatta nice place! Hey, now ya gotta come up with a name for it! [;>)

      thanks Nevada and Trey! i'm calling it the Zombie Squirrel Camp for the time being - in honor of the very smelly, dead squirrel in the kitchen. i think we'll hold off on future names till it gets fixed up. we're planning to expand the porch along the river side of the house and having it screened in.

      Not an easy job & I think flying squirrels are the worst.

      thanks wickencrafts! the zombie squirrel was just a dead gray squirrel which appeared to have had it's face eaten off [probably by another gray squirrel on flakka].
    18. wickencrafts wickencrafts, 8 years ago
      LoL
      ho2cultcha that is ticklish funny

      BUT the eater and the eaten found the way to indoors.
      Hope you can find their egress and keep the critters out

      The joys of country livin

      Looks to be a nice property with awe inspiring water features
      Enjoy
