I mentioned Friday I had spent some time at my parents cabin - and since my sister and her family missed out on the trip thanks to the flu, I thought I'd share what she missed. First up, the road to the cabin.
There have been some renovations and it looks better than ever, best of all - the new roof that made the balcony the best part of the cabin.
Grandma and Grandpa put up a tire swing for the little ones - they will love it.
My favorite grove of trees - the sun always seems to shine through these trees in the most beautiful way. We spent tons of time here when we were growing up, but adult life means it is much harder to get there - but every time I do I fall in love with it all over again.
When I think music and cabin I think of Bon Iver holed up in a cabin creating his amazing For Emma, Forever Ago album, including this song: Flume Pin It

It looks SO cosy - I love being in cabins, even the food tastes better! :-)
This place is beautiful! I love the tire swing and king's chair!
looks so lovely - can just imagine snuggling up to an open fire with a mug of hot chocolate and a good book. Delicious!
What a beautiful place Jamie. I love the photos - the lightness makes the place seem really dreamy.
Looks like a wonderful get-away! I love the experience of a cabin, where all your cares seem to be left at home. Our family has had a couple cabins over the years and each holds special memories for us. Your last capture of the light coming through the aspen grove is lovely!
What a great place! Just beautiful, Jamie! Hope your sister and her family are feeling better.
I like how the place is surrounded by trees. It gives off such a cozy feeling.
I love the new awning! I don't think I've seen it since they got new siding either. It looks so good!
This is so beautiful, Jamie! I close my eyes and pretend I'm there!
Such sad news about the flu ... that is the PITS! Hope your sis and her fam feel better soon!
Umm, wow?!?!? I am speechless ... this cabin looks like an incredible getaway-from-it-all place!

Sooo jealous, that looks so beautiful. What a perfect place to get away from it all. And the weather looks perfect too!
This looks like so much fun! And I love the "kings chair", it's so epic!
Thanks for joining in all the fun over at The Girl With The Blue Bow! I'm now following back!

How lovely!! Are those birch trees?? What a perfect little spot to relax.
Oh! All those White Birch trees! This looks like such a magical place to escape to. How lucky you are to be able to share this with your family.
these photos are filled with joy, and I can see so clearly that your heart is in each and every one with memories and smiles. the birch bark, the yellows and greens, the light - a.mazing. you've just made my day.
(I enjoyed Flume too). happy day to you Jamie.
I love the bark on those trees. Are they birch? The texture is so pretty and the light is wonderful.
What a stunning place! It seems so peaceful...and I love those birches! So pretty :)
Gorgeous . I love the sun in the trees.
What a wonderful place! The cabin looks adorable!
I don't know if I have ever been there. I can't remember it at all if I have, but the king's throne looks familiar. Maybe there are more than one of those in the world. Looks like a cozy place for a retreat.
This looks so perfectly idyllic. What a beautiful place to grow up, and how lucky to be able to return as an adult. My parents had to sell our lakeside cottage about five years ago, which had been in the family since the 30's. I still dream about every part of it.
