👩 Who: Kirsten A. from Orem, Utah

💬 The experience: When I was about 10, I lived in a house in the middle of an orchard. One day I went through the peach, apple and pear trees to visit my friend on the other side of the block. On the way, I noticed a tree house that I'd never seen before. It was really awesome. It had trap door that you pushed up with your head/shoulders accessed by a ladder. Inside was a plush room covered in carpeting even on the walls and the ceiling. I ran to my friends house to bring her back and show her but when we got back into the orchard, I couldn't find it. For years afterwards, until they finally cut down all the trees to make room for houses, I looked for the treehouse and could never find it again.
