Our little cottage, by most accounts, is a plain little building.

It was originally constructed as housing for the Fort Dorset military base in the early 1900s.

White weatherboard, with standard sash windows, a square box.

In the 1980s, the owners added a kitchen, a bathroom, and a small room upstairs.

But, the amount of joy and happiness we have experienced in the little house, and how precious it is to us, it may as well be made of gold!

I gave pointillism a go.
