THESE
ROSES
These roses under my window make no reference to former
roses or to better ones; they for what they are; they exist
with God today. There is no time to them. There is simply
the rose; it is perfect in every moment of its existence.
Before a leaf -bud has burst, its whole life acts; in the
full- blown flower there is no more, in the leafless root
there is no less. Its nature is satisfied and it satisfies
nature in all moments alike.
But we postpone or remember. We do not live in the present,
but with reverted eye lament the past, or, heedless of the
riches that surround us, stand on tiptoe to foresee the
future. We cannot be happy or strong until we too live with
nature in the present, above time. - Emerson

The
Stable was once a small horse stable. The cottage now consists
of a large room divided to provide a smaller room that houses
a "working man's" bed. In the main space there is a
Cape kitchen with a 4 burner stove and 1/2 refrigerator, a table
for 2 or 3, a queen sized custom platform bed, comfortable couch,
stereo TV and VCR, and lots of windows on the surrounding foliage
which includes black pine, olive trees and wild beach plantings.
A fire place was added to the stable this winter, enhancing
its' off season ambience! There is an inside shower room
and a bath room. An outside terrace features deck chairs, a picnic
table, a charcoal grill, a very private outdoor shower and an
enclosed hammock shelter. Although a dune blocks the stable from
having a bay view, you can hear the surf at night and a private
path puts you at the top of the dune in less than a minute. The
cottage is fully insulated, the interior has been completely finished
in 18th century barnboard painted white, and has heat. It is comfortable
year round. This cottage works well for a couple with child.
Maximum Capacity 1 couple with child. You
