About This log cabin was originally built in 1883 on a nearby site by Joaquin Miller, a colorful California poet who affected rustic ways (apparently a hippie, way ahead of his time). In 1886, Miller lost most of his money in the stock market, and was forced to sell the cabin and return to California. In the early 1900's the cabin had to be moved to make way for the construction of an elaborate Italian/Renaissance style park. The cabin was moved to the east bank of Rock Creek. After Miller's death in 1913 his family maintained ties to the cabin, and up until the mid-1950’s, Pherne Miller, Joaquin’s niece, conducted art classes and sold candy and soft drinks there. The cabin, now maintained by the National Park Service is preserved, but only opened to the public once a year for an annual poetry reading.

An emotive piece for me! It refreshed the memory of long winter we have had here. At first I shuttered feeling the cold in the morning before the sun finds, then slightly warms and carresses one's face. Oh the beauty! Fantastic capture!

Thanks Robert. This was the almost the last snowfall of the season, and it was mostly gone by the end of the day, so I made time to take this shot in the morning. I'm really glad I did.

Thanks for your good wishes.

Thanks Sylvia -- the info in the 'about' actually resulted from some spontaneous correspondence relating to my other photo of this cabin. I've lived near this cabin for years, but never knew about it's original occupant until I looked it up to answer a question from another UF user. Glad you enjoyed it, and thanks so much for your congratulations.

Elisa, thanks so much for you kind words. I like the idea of poetry in pictures. In Europe, Joaquin Miller was referred to as the "Byron of the Rockies."

Thanks again.

Thanks for your kinds words, Dave, and for mentoring me through my "recycle" photo. This is kinda nice because I took my camera with me on the way to works specifically to photograph this little cabin under snow. (Then afterwards I went to the Starbucks to warm up). As always, I appreciate your help and encouragement.

Thanks Dirk, I'll give it a try tomorrow (too late tonight). What do you think about sepia -- then I could keep some of the sense of golden light?

I appreciate the comment -- and the suggestion for another way of looking at this photo.

Michele -- did you see that this little photo got a PoD award? I'm amazed. I think it must have something to do with our exchange of info on the site and the original owner. But I actually do like this one better for its moodiness.

Thanks so much for your enthusiasm.

Thanks Sylvia for commenting. The 'about' is really the result of an exchange of info between Michele Carlson and me because she was interested in the history of this cabin, and I decided to look it up. Turns out Michele knew about the original owner, Joaquin Miller -- and I was able to find out how this cabin came to be where it is.

I'm glad you like it.

Thanks for commenting, Fabio. I guess it's kind of ironic that the original owner had to sell this cabin because of momumental losses in the stock market.

Thanks again for the comment.
