I searched through the other sections; housing, rural, camping etc. Yet found no where to fit this photo. We had moved to Humboldt county near the town of Shelter Cove on the coast here. We lived at 1500 feet. This was in 1994 and I had got a job with an aviary that required me to be on the property. My boss had his own house, but no second dwelling. Using a bow saw, I cut down some douglas firs, made a pole structure and covered it in plastic and tarps. I bought a 1918 wood burning cookstove and put it in the hovel. We lived in this 14' x 14' home made tent for two years till we had enough saved to build a structure. It was an adventure living in a tent for two years, battling snow storms, torrential rain and wind, but this hovel served us well for two years. It was destroyed by 117 mph winds from a winter storm in December of 96.
