Dreaming tree Django describes tree house life reverently: “It’s like riding a horse compared to a motorcycle. A motorcycle is fun, but a horse is alive. Putting your house in a giant living organism is profound. You get to know the tree and feel safe in the branches. A lot of the forest doesn’t recognize that you’re there. You’re up close with birds, tree frogs and flying squirrels. It’s an intimacy with the canopy you can’t experience any other way.” To read more, click her

Cincinnati native Django Kroner is changing that idea one treehouse at a time in Kentucky's Red River Gorge. "The gorge is to Cincinnatians ... a total hidden gem," Kroner said.

Hailing from the banks of the mighty Ohio River, Django fell in love with Kentucky's Red River Gorge by way of rock climbing, however, the climbing didn't end with rocks. He decided sleeping "off the deck" was better than in a tent and with a little help from friends, he constructed a simple platform style treehouse 45 ft off the ground, where he ended up living for the next three years. Years later, his passion for building and being suspended transitioned into his life's w
