THE STORY OF THE LITTLE RED SHED (a.k.a. “Studio on Riverside”)
Part 2 of 5
It was very dusty and dirty inside the little red shed (see Part 1 for images). Cobwebs hung in every corner. Weeds were coming through the walls and up through the uneven dirt floor.
We started pulling stuff out, one thing at a time. Crumbling ice cream pails, mason jars and various other pieces of garbage were disposed of, along with remnants of the old wood floor and wiring.
But in with the rubble and sitting upon the old apple boxes turned storage units, were a few things that made you go hmmmmmm. We’ve captioned each photo with a description except for the last two. We’re not sure how old the plane is or what the other one is or was used for. If you have any idea, please let us know.
Maybe once we know a little more about these unknown treasures it will give us a better idea of the history of the little red shed and whether the rumors of it’s “questionable” past are true.
We’ll share more of those “questionable” details in Part 3 of “THE STORY OF THE LITTLE RED SHED (a.k.a. “Studio on Riverside”)”.
