Looks perfect for Moomins.

Those must be screen caps from a Legend of Zelda game !!

O M G I'm so tempted to build this out in Lego, as a Dungeons and Dragons setting.

Where do they store the dock for the winter? If it were me, I would just pull it up onto the shoreline. But it's not there. Do they tow it across the lake? It's too big to fit through the doorway of the barn.

Burn it for heat?

Spring, Fall, Winter, and Second Winter.

Obviously it's sectional, and may break down even further.
How do you know it won't fit through the barn door, you can't see the barn door in any of those pictures.

Why do they have to remove it for the winter at all? Maybe the pictures aren't in order, and they actually just happened to build a dock for the first time that spring.

Ha! So I played a super short D&D game last weekend just teaching a middle schooler the ropes, first time since like 1985. The Dungeon Master really knows his craft, damned entertaining.

The ramp leading to the double doors looks like the barn door to me. And the double doors are smaller than the dock. Other pictures at the link show the left side of the barn and there appears to be no door there, and the right side had canoes stacked next to it, so there must be no door on that end.

THE barn door, the main door, is always at the end of the barn under the peak of the roof.

There are several more photos and a couple of videos available to answer that question, but not why they leave the ladder up year-round.

xoxoxoBruce 05-03-2018 02:58 PM

The ladder is for chimney fires, quite common with people who burn wood in Canada and rural US.

Diaphone Jim 05-03-2018 05:39 PM

The ladder or the fires?
I clean and sweep my chimneys every fall to avoid the fire part of things.
My neighbor's made like a Saturn V several years ago and made me a believer.
Darned if the ladder isn't still up.
