Colorado Water Wheel Mill Paper House Model





The funny thing is that I ended up with 49 house patterns and couldn't figure out which state I left out until I carefully checked all the names against a list of states.  It turned out to be Colorado.  So what kind of model to make for Colorado was the question.  A mountain lodge?  A little cabin getaway?  No, I already did those for other states.  Finally, I decided on a water wheel mill and then created the pattern.  It turned out even better than I had hoped.  I know the grey blocks under the house look odd but it had to be above the floor to make room for the wheel.  Also, I used a toothpick to make the wheel actually turn.  I love it.
