Stone House

It's located in Nas Montanhas de Fafe, Portugal and it's as real as you are.

See it from space on Google Maps.

The photos above and below taken by Feliciano André Sequeira Guimarães, a child and adolescent psychiatrist in Guimarães, Portugal.

Wrote Sebrina Smith on greenopolis, "Not much has been published about the house itself. Although it appears to be built completely out of stone, it is actually a house nestled between two giant boulders."

"I can't tell you who built it or why, or how long it took to complete."

"Seems to be livable enough, if you don't mind being surrounded by cold stone and the apparent lack of cable TV. It has windows and a door and a tin roof that may be starting to rust, not unlike many other houses."

Where You Don't Need A Permit To Buy A Gun

From BrilliantMaps: "The map above shows which countries/U.S. states don't require you to have a permit to buy a gun or other firearm. Yemen is allegedly the only country in the world where you don't need a permit to buy a gun no matter where you live."

Res ipsa loquitur.
