Looking at the shadow of its chimney I remembered the cabin full of mosquitoes. Mr. McGregor told me they couldn’t get into the bedroom. There was a shower, a woodstove, and a bed. I would only be there a few weeks. Given the bear warnings it would be better than my tent.
Incidentally, there was also a ghost that rattled stuff, but so did the wind.
When I left I told Mr. McGregor about the ghost. He apologized. Normally he wouldn’t have rented the cabin, but I seemed like the kind of guy who wouldn’t mind Megan. I didn’t.

Dear Frank,
Welcome to Friday Fictioneers. If I’m not mistaken, this is your first FF story. 😀 And it’s a dandy. I’m intrigued by Megan. You left me wanting to know more.
Shalom,
Rochelle

I imagine he didn’t even mind the mosquitoes that much. Thank you, Pragalbha!

Its seems that the ghost was less scary than the mosquitoes, bears and wind combined. I like the fact that the ghost had a name. Great take on the prompt!

I was hoping the name might suggest a backstory I hadn’t thought of yet. Thank you, Magarisa!

Welcome to Friday Fictioneers, Frank! So glad to see you here.
And what a great story. He truly does take things in stride, doesn’t he? Mr. Easy-Going, I would call him.

Yes, he was perhaps too easy going. Thank you, Dale!

Megan, huh? Sounds like a man-friendly ghost. Now if it had been old Cogger Seth Kesson, of the Kesson Clan, you might have chosen the mosquitoes. 😀

I’d probably prefer the mosquitoes. Or the bears. Thank you, Oneta!
