Last year we were on a short trip, and we passed something very strange looking. In fact, so strange that I told Phil we just had to turn around and investigate. And this is what we saw as we turned off the highway and drove down the side street. A small neighborhood of tiny crooked houses for huge leafy moose to live in!!! The blue house was made to look like a ship. I think I have never come across something as strange as this, and was so glad to have my camera!!

The house owner is very creative and very good in landscaping as well.. brightens up the garden with the "human greens." :)
Oh my goodness, how cute. Ginny, I'm glad you and Phil turned around and went back to get some photos. Those houses are so unusual and so are the greenery moose.
I love them. They look like a cartoon.
Certainly a very strange sight that makes me wonder WHY!
That is so neat! You can find amazing things, Ginny! :)
Gosh ~ those are cute! Somebody went through a lot of work to build all that I think. Cool!

i love the blue one, they are really cute.. i wonder if they sell them for childrens play houses. either that or someone has an addiction for building crooked houses. really cool...
When I was visiting Charlottesville a few years back, I came upon an ark!! Virginia is just full of surprises.

I love these, Ginny! Great Bible quote for this post.
Your posts are always a delightful feast for my eyes and they so often make me laugh and smile too! Love these little house and that quote is too funny.
Someone sure has a quirky sense of humor! I'm glad you snapped these to show us!

Neat little houses and those moose, reallllly..... What an imagination. That was a fun discovery for you and Phil. Yes I am glad to be back blogging. It has been a while. Hubby is doing better which gives me more time for me. Thanks for being my blogging friend. LJ
So funny that the moose and crooked houses go together! What a crazy find!
Those are very interesting, whimsical houses. I like the color of the blue one. Of course, Mr. Moose himself is quite a character.
So glad you found this unique sight and shared with us. Never knew anything like it existed.
I came here, liked the area and stayed.
Kiss.

Those are so cute. How do you manage to find so many cool things in your travels?
Hi Ginny, What a fun set of pictures. They brightened up what is lining up to be a snowy late afternoon here in Crossville, TN where I am at the moment. Have a great Thursday tomorrow!
oh my gosh! how fun! We would have turned around too!!
Oh my goodness! How adorable!!! I want some of those in my backyard!
Wow what a strange but fun place you found! These crooked houses are in very pretty colors and moose look quite happy living there :-)
I think you are a magnet for the unusual, or you are exceptionally observant, or both. And, of course, there is your partner in photography who maneuvers you up close for your "investigations."
I think they are adorable and they are in your neighborhood?
