From an old Nursery Rhyme Goosey, goosey, gander, / Whither shall I wander? / Upstairs, and downstairs, / And in my lady’s chamber. There I met an old man / Who wouldn’t say his prayers! / I took him by the left leg / And threw him down the stairs.

One may wonder why after building one of the finest houses in the Cove, they didn’t tear down the old one. Since they lived in the end of the 19th century it would be hard to know for sure. We can surmise reasons from what we know of that era. Those that ventured into the mountains were a resourceful people. They were prone to not waste anything or taking anything for granted. What they had they got by the sweat they put in it. Perhaps they were more worried about heating the main house up cooking a meal or canning, than they were of the appearance of Matilda’s cabin. Maybe they wanted room for kids later on or a place for strangers to sleep. It could be used for a warm place for some of the livestock; it would a beat milking the cow in the freezing barn. We may never know what they used it for, for it had many possibilities. We know times were hard and you usually worked from “can see” to “can’t see”, septine on Sundays. They lived off what they could provide their selves. Perhaps they just left it to remind them of how good they did have it…..more info on these cabins can be found on the other images of the same place….made in Cades Cove, GSMNP !

The cabin at Jim Bales Place is an example of a single pen cabin. It was a one room with a fireplace. The cabin itself is The Alex Cole Cabin from the Sugarlands area.It was decided by the park service it better matched the corn crib an barn of Jim Bales which are original.This would be more representive of the early Appalachian days here.The house that was there when the park service obtained it, was one that was built as the farm was handed down through the years.It was a modern frame house known as the “Fancy House” / This is located on the Roaring Fork Nature Trail in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park

The cabins here on the Henry Whitehead place shows what can be accomplished with determination. The newer log house, built in 1898. From logs sawn square at a nearby mill, a tight-fitting crib was built with hardly any spaces left to chink. The corners are worked to near perfection. Most of the interior log faces, ceiling joists and boards were dressed with a hand plane. How many endless strokes brought them up to this smoothness? The wall toward the prevailing wind was weather boarded to keep out wind and rain, and to preserve the chinking. A brick chimney, rare for the Smokies, was made of brick molded and fired on the property. A transition house, this one is a beautiful blend of log work and sawmills technology. By contrast, the older cabin was built almost entirely with a felling axe under emergency circumstances. Rough-hewn logs with jagged ends and the rubble stone chimney show the hastiest kind of construction.Its also a little on the uneven side.Lots of things needed done before winter set in.If you spent to long makeing a shelter you and your stock,if you had any,may starve or frezze to death. This pair of dwellings represents about the roughest and finest of log construction in the Smokies. They are located in the Cades Cove Section of the Great Smoky Mountains

Some things you can hardly believe when you see them. I went to school as a structural engineer, and I have to say I’m amazed this house is standing. I went to some pains to make sure the image is vertical, and it’s definitely pretty close. So yes, that lamppost on the left really is leaning like that. This is just a scene captured while on the back streets of Nallihan in central Anatolia. Sometimes I feel like every door I see has a story behind it worth telling. If you look closely there’s a padlock keeping this one shut. What we’ll probably never know is … why?
