This log cabin is in Shawnee Lookout Park in southwestern Ohio very close to the junction of the Great Miami and Ohio Rivers.
West Union, Ohio at Adams Heritage Center. There must be an interesting story behind this, but I found nothing at the site and nobody I asked knew of it. I would welcome information.

As you cruise down the west side of the Cape into the Gulf of Carpenteria you bump into, go around or as in our case explore Crab Island which is part of a large shallow moving mass of sand banks that stretch across to Prince of Wales Island. . the island is the biggest nesting location for the rare Flat Back Turtles and is about 3 - 4 km end to end . There is just enough depth in the top half of the tide for our vessel to carefully sneak in between the Island and the main land
The low lying main land vista has little of interest apart from foraging pigs and bird life ..just miles of sand beach strewn with remnants from around the world . Of interest to me was the rusty drums of diesel from Asian and 3 old refrigerant cylinders from who knows where.
But the anchorage was totally calm and well protected from nearly all directions. Its a delight to be surrounded by picturesque sand banks at low tide . Strolling around the island was a terrific for our naturalist and photographic leanings . Most interesting mangrove areas and swirling sandy mud flats on the eastern side . On the north west side was a long wide steeper beach which a large population of crocs seemed to like, they are no doubt feasting on the nesting Flat Back turtles.
7 large crocs together surrounded by the rolling ocean was a sight to behold. 2 females had tracking devices attached . The Australian Zoo ( the late Steve Erwin ) in combination with Queensland Uni attach these devices to crocs up the Wenlock River area for study purposes so not sure if they came from there or not but it was fascinating to actually see the devices . I was able to approach to within 20 meters before all the reptiles dissolved into the ocean . We were happy to get some reasonable pics for memorabilia although I wished I had purchased that long distance telescopic lens I had agonized over before we commenced our journey . It would have been sensational to have been able to capture really close up sharp shots of their comings and goings from a distance. Maybe I should mortgage the boat!!!!
The croc tracks indicated at least one had at times moved a long way up the beach to where the turtles laid their eggs so we pondered whether they themselves were nesting amongst the tusky grass mounds bordering the beach or whether they were just feasting on helpless turtles or the turtle and their eggs!!
This log home had its existing finish removed by ozzying (sanding) it off. We the washed the building and applied a borate tratment to the bare wood surface. After the logs were dry we applied two coats of Sashco Capture (Sequoia) log home finish. In between coats we applied caulking in any checks 1/4" or larger. We used Conceal caulking (Santa Fe Trail) for this project. We then applied the final clear coat to protect the caulking and logs from harmful UV damage.
It's actually (probably) an Ibex - Isn't it interesting that the fabric looks like the log cabin quilt pattern?
This is from the first roll of Kodachrome I ever shot and is over a year old. I'm seriously backlogged. I love this film though; too bad it's going away.

Burritt on the Mountain — A Living Museum has been referred to as a "Jewel on the Mountain." Start with Dr. William Henry Burritt's eclectic mansion, add a historic park with restored 19th century houses including barnyard and animals, and you have a delightful mixture of historic old and new experiences for young and old.
Côté ouest vers la loge royale et tous les spectateurs.
Une visite conférence à l'Opéra Royal de Versailles, j'en rêvais depuis longtemps !
Ce n'est pas malheureusement idéal pour faire des photos...il faut suivre le conférencier et les autres visiteurs veulent aussi prendre des photos.
Pas de flash possible et peu de lumière, heureusement mon Canon 7D peut monter dans les ISO sans trop de grain : 3200 à 1/4s....sans pied !
