Best Train Ever!
Treehouse’s were the coolest thing when I was a kid! I can only imagine how amazing it would be to visit this :)
Construction began in 1993 when Horace Burgess believed that God spoke to him to build the treehouse. Now in 2011, the treehouse is 10 stories tall and officially measures as the tallest treehouse in the world.
This totally sounds like something my sister would have done when she was sick…and the handwriting looks the same as hers! Miss you Alex
“The six-year-old girl who wanted to leave love letters to her parents”
When 6-year-old Elena Desserich was diagnosed with brain cancer, she began hiding hundreds of little love notes around the house for her parents to find after she was gone. She was given 135 days to live. She lived 255 days, passing away in 2007. After her death, Elena’s parents, Brooke and Keith, found hundreds of notes from Elena hidden around the house — in between CD cases, between bookshelves, in dresser drawers, in backpacks. “It just felt like a little hug from her, like she was telling us she was looking over us”. Elena’s parents, Brooke and Keith Desserich, later published these notes in a book called Notes Left Behind to fund a non-profit organization The Cure Starts Now dedicated to fighting pediatric brain cancer
