We spent the weekend in a tree house.
One of my favorite vacations happened last fall.
My husband and I were celebrating our thirtieth anniversary and wanted to spend it alone.
I had been looking online for some place special for us to go. I found a treehouse that was only 50 miles away from our home. I heard about treehouse vacation spots, but I didn’t know there were any in our immediate area. My husband drove all the way up into the mountains, but I made him put a blindfold on while I drove the last 10 miles. I wanted to surprise him with a treehouse. I thought his face was going to crack from smiling so big when he saw the place. We climbed 2 sets of stairs before getting to the outdoor patio. I had already called ahead to local grocers, and talked to the owner of the treehouse and asked if they would put the groceries in the refrigerator for me? I had to pay extra, but I didn’t care. The house had a new HVAC, a full bedroom with a full bath, and a kitchen and living room combined. The bedroom has three glass walls, so you could see the forest all around you. I was going to take a shower when I realized that there was no air vent in the bathroom for heat. I asked my husband if he had figured out how to turn the furnace on t, and he said the house would soon be warm. He came into the bathroom and was checking all the buttons and twist knobs that were right inside the bathroom door. He figured out that the exhaust fan also had a heating system.
