Lisa and Willard drove up from Atlanta for a long weekend to celebrate their tenth
anniversary. They instantly fell in love with the Blue Ridge Mountains, the quaint
towns, the winding mountain roads, and the leisurely pace of mountain life. By the
time Sunday night rolled around, they were talking about buying land.
Fifteen years later, they own ten acres in Suches, and just finished building
The Bird House — which was meant to be Lisa’s She-Shed, but quickly evolved into the beautiful cabin you’re reading about now. Lisa tells me that one day she and Willard.
