At the top of a very steep hill. The grass is a little long. The trees are bushy and native. This driveway is located in a town on the outskirts of my town. And it makes me wonder, this driveway, just who it is that lives there. And mostly I wonder just what they see from there. The view must be amazing. I wonder if there is a ramshackle shack Or is it a sweeping mansion. A virtual castle perched at the very top of the world? You see, when I said it was high, what I meant is that it is very, very high.
Now can you imagine what type of home you would perch on the edge of the tallest mountain that you could find in your town? I often do. When I am nearby. I think of a glass and steel structure. It would need to be at least three stories high. Sturdy but with that flat glacial beauty. Bedrooms would be open and airy. Veranda’s would be everywhere, timber that would age and turn white in the beating sun. And from the open plan living area you would have views from every angle. Paintings and furnishings would pale in comparison once again compared to what Mother Nature had to offer.
Well, that is what I imagine anyway. But I’m a house nerd. I just love, love, love houses. Does that make me a weirdo? What do you imagine when you see that slightly overgrown driveway, perched at the top of the world?
