There are cottages in France, England, new England...even Indiana has a cottage or two. But, when you think about cottages, do you really think about Alaska? You think of mostly boring, mid 80's beige boxes, townhomes, ramshackle trailers, but cottages?
I found one...or rather it found me. I was on craigslist hoping to find a place available in October. Since my lease on my ski chalet apartment is coming due. I liked the ski chalet. It was a place of wonder and safe haven. It was an escape from the winter harshness. And then when spring came, it was a place of love. And, I was restless all summer. The flowers were growing and I have only a rubber made tub of them struggling to survive. Now it is growing colder and I found the Blue Belle Cottage. It was build early in the history of Anchorage so not too long ago. It survived the big earthquake on good friday. It has been here the whole time and I want to be home in it.
So, moving day is coming soon. More pictures and info to come.
This is a new chapter of my life and instead of looking back, oh I am looking forward. Because to look forward means dreams can come to life in front of my eyes. I am looking forward to seeing!
