OUTDOOR WEDNESDAY - TREE HOUSES


Today is Outdoor Wednesday and we are joining Susan @ A Southern Daydreamer to see what is going on in the great outdoors. Stop in and visit all the other posts.

I am sharing some amazing tree houses. I don't think these are really for kids. What do you think?

    I'll take one of those. My son has built a couple of tree houses over the years. I think I'll show him these for his grown up inspiration.

    These are some amazing tree houses! I could spend lots of time in some of these. We have a two story home with lots of large trees. Being in our upstairs rooms often feels just like we are in the trees. I love it!

    My husband and children always want to build a tree house. I'm kind of a kill joy, I want the Garage trim painted and the rain gutters cleaned first, before another unfinished project gets started.

    Wow! These are amazing. Beautiful mosaics. I especially love the ones over the water. But as I have a tendency to sleepwalk, they might not be the best place for me lol. Have a wonderful week. Kathy

    Love the tree houses! I would love to have one! Especially if it was near water whether it was a river, lake or ocean. Would be a fabulous vacation spot.

    Thank you for sharing them with us!

    They are really amazing. It's fascinating to see how some of those structures are supported. A bit of an engineering feat for some of them. Have a great Outdoor Wednesday.

    There is some major fantasizing going on with the owners of all those tree houses! Amazing feats of engineering for many of them... How fun.

    I love tree houses! In fact the reason we bought this property is because it had a huge Red Oak that was perfect for my tree house. Unfortunately the Red Oak had Oak Wilt a fatal disease and we were unable to save it. I had to leave for the day when they cut down my gorgeous Oak. I was in tears for days.

    Some of those tree houses are amazing,constructed by experts i should imagine.We put one ( very home made) up in a beech tree,but the limbs were rotten and the whole thing fell down,thankfully the children were not in it at the time.

    Keep it simple.... yep love the tree houses. We built one as kids in an apple tree... can you imagine. First good storm took it down. NorEasters in New England can do that. :( But it was fun while it lasted. Thanks for the memory. Hugs. Tammy

    I love tree houses. They always seem so magical.

    Do you remember the book The Magic Faraway Tree? This post reminded me of it so I am going to see if I can find a copy of that book as I really loved it as a child.

    Thanks for your visit on my cornbread post last week -- I'm finally getting around to answering -- my cornbread was so dry that years ago my cornbread loving husband told me to just give it up! He loved this one and I think I've finally found a good recipe (I liked that it was sweet too!)
