The island of the mother-in-law.

view map

In a small island not far away there is also a small house surrounded only by water, called the island of the mother-in-law .... how many of you would like to get rid of it?
Ref: George Charles Boldt. He is well known for building Boldt Castle, on an island in the Thousand Islands area of New York State. The enormous castle was intended as a gift for his wife Louise Kehrer Boldt, but when she died suddenly in 1904, construction was halted. The castle near Alexandria Bay, which is still undergoing major restoration after decades of vandalism, is now a major summer tourist attraction.

Cette maison est vraiment incroyable mais après l'explication je comprends mieux. Un bien bel endroit pour se débarrasser de sa belle mère :-))

Nice, pic. Looks like the 1.000 island, in Saint Lawrence , Canada.

Be well
