This caught my eye because of the profusion of quilts airing on the lines, as well as all the other bedding outside (pillows and feather ticks?). It kept my attention because this cabin was located at Green Lake, Seattle, which is in our "backyard" so to speak.
The cabin was built by Erhard Seigried in 1869 and the photo was taken around 1900.
It's kinda hard to see the quilts and the patterns they carry, but I just love the fact that there are so many in one household. It looks as if the woman is pumping water. Any guess as to what the boy is doing?
A Blessed Sunday to You!
What a wonderful historic photo. Imagine how amazing if you or I had a family photo like this to treasure!
