`` you see , there are times when i need to get away from everyone and just be with the land , and i used to come and camp out here for a few days , but during one of those trips it rained and i was sleeping on the wet ground and got chilled and the wolves went running off to tell papa and he said he appreciated my need to spend some time with the land but he saw no reason why i could n't have the option of some shelter and i said that a lean-to would probably be a reasonable idea so he had this cabin built .
