Brant Welcome House Cellar 1854

It’s amazing such good stories exist in our epochs along with all else. I love the conversations people have every time they get together (along with everything new that comes up.) Inevitably every visit to the land of laurel reed includes rhapsodic talk of the history of it. “Brant realized it was too much land for just his own people to settle 
and so invited european settlement and my friends at laurel reed poetry farm live in one of the first of the welcome houses for a european village on brant land.

Part of it of course is my own hearing. Each time I hear the stories I come away construing something slightly different, and imagining the rest. The way I’d envisioned the cellar as not alike its splendid reality.
Actual trees, timber, with horse hair plaster, and remarkable old stone.
