“There is scarcely any writer who has not celebrated the happiness of rural privacy, and delightedted himself and his reader with the melody of birds, the whisper of groves, and the mum or of rivulets.”

  4. I love, love, love that green roof! Oh, so pretty! And I also adore the quote you mentioned - how it has all the truth in the world. A writer cannot go without mentioning the simplicity & beauty in nature. Great post! Blessings to you!

  6. I have been trying to find which blog you are using...and this one had the right date on it.
    I wanted to thank you for stopping by and leaving such a nice comment on my post. I appreciated it so much. You made me feel so much better. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
    Your photo's were lonely looking but beautiful in a serene way. Pictures of old barns are some of my favorites.
