We eat way too much food when we go to "our little Hilton"! |
We haven't been here to check on things for a couple of months and it was so good to be here. |
It was so hot but that didn't keep us from building a fire and grilling out! See our new little grill? |
Cheeseburgers! |
Barbecue Pork chops, fresh corn on the cob and grilled tomatoes along with potato salad. |
This is our little kitchen. See Granny's pan hanging above the sink? This may not look like much to some but we just love this little place. |
This is Granny's dresser and wardrobe. I just love that I am still using it. All those totes are full of scraps that I have brought from home. You just never know what you might want to sew! |
This is my favorite part of the inside of this little place. I have a sewing machine, ironing board, rulers, scissors, fabric and anything else I might need when I am in the mood. |
Have I told you that we love our "little Hilton"?
TODAY I AM THANKFUL FOR........ a holiday weekend.

Your little 'home away from home'. I know how much you love it. Glad your weekend was wonderful.
I love the little Hilton too! It's looks so cozy. :-)
Oh I wish I had a Hilton!
Val, I love your "little Hilton" ! It doesn't take much to make some of us happy. I think it is just precious that you are still using your Granny's things.
I could live full time in your little Hilton. It looks so homey and inviting. Glad you had a good, restful weekend. When Grampy and I used to go to our place in the mountains before we moved there full time we'd eat twice as much as we normally did. Everything just tastes so good when you're in the clean fresh air.
Your little HIlton is looking great...love the new grill!
Oh sweetie I just love your little Hilton - a true home away from home! You've done a marvelous job here and I'm so glad you can just enjoy it now!
Val, Love your little home away from home. That guest room looks so inviting. I love a room that has 2 beds in it. Have thought about doing twin beds in my guest room , there is not enough room for 2 full size. And the quilts make the beds so pretty.
Breakfast looks yummy, but I'll take my biscuits just with butter, don't eat gravy!
And the bbq pork chops, I will just stay for supper also. (ha)
Glad you got to get away. Looks like a neat place to kick back and relax.
I love eyour lil Hilton. What a nice getaway spot with most of the comforts of home.
I love your little deer cabin. You are lucky to have running water and electricity. That we don't have at ours. We have gas lines run for lamps, and our water is a big big barrel outside on a frame. It works on the gavity system. but we still love the little place. We just rent ours from year to year.
It looks like the perfect spot for a getaway and I love how you have so many touching memories of Granny there. The quilts on the beds look so wonderful.
Everything just tastes so good when you're in the clean fresh air.
was what Granny said and I agree with her one hundred percent! And smells better too!
Home is where the heart is and I think it shows. They had done research about how good it is for us to have a relationship with Mother Nature and I think you have that down pat!: )
Love your little getaway. Isn't it amazing how happy we can be with so little. We had a little getaway in the mtns. So happy there.
We used to live in a little "cabin" that was smaller than your Hilton. We had a living room, that my mom slept in on a couch. My brother had a small room and I did. The kitchen was way smaller than yours. It had a toilet with a pull-across divider door (that you could hear through and if you didn't pull all the way shut, you could see into!) and a small shower. That was it! We had a tiny fridge, about 3 ft. tall. We didn't have much, but I have alot of good memories from living there!
I would LOVE to visit your Hilton. It looks like so much fun! :) So relaxing and peaceful. I also wanted to say that we have had to use alot of spray foam around here on various things. If you take a small saw blade (like on a multi-tool) you can saw the extra foam off level with the wall and paint over it. It's actually quite easy to saw through, very soft. :)
Love to you!
Val, just for fun I sometimes imagine what time period my friends would fit into. I have friends who fit into the southern belle/plantation era, but I fit into the early days of our country, those with pioneer spirit. I think that's where you fit, too. We find joy in the simple, uncomplicated life that meets our basic needs, but doesn't overflow with luxuries that have to be cared for, instead giving us time to care for family and friends! Love the Hilton!
