Sunday Bridges with Shadows ~ 11-5-11

Every year there is a fall festival at the Cyrus McCormick Homeplace at Raphine, VA...very close to my school.  Here are some photos from that fun day.

Buddy With a Wee Shadow
I just couldn’t leave him out of the post. He is not being a brides fellow, but rather he treated me to some of these dried somethings which have little black berries on the tops.

This post is linked with Sunday Bridges and Shadow Shot Sunday.

  4. It looks delightful. Would it be the same Walnut Grove from the "Little House on the Prairie" books?

  7. Neat post, Genie, and a welcome contribution to Sunday Bridges.

    «Louis'» paternal grandfather was a farmer who always bought McCormick (later International Harvester) tractors.

    There is a town called Walnut Grove on the Sacramento River Delta some 60 miles northeast of Chez la Vache. Yes, they grow walnuts there!

  11. Love the landmark photo with the shadows. And the 'bouquet' would make a great Autumnal centerpiece...or a mantel addition.

    Off the Pier...shadows is my link, if you'd care to view.

    Have a great day.

  15. Hello Genie I am so happy you found me you have such beautiful photos on your blog. To hear that you are a teacher at the young age of 72 amazes me yes it is to bad we live so far apart I am sure we would have lots to talk about as we seem to have a lot of the same interests.
    I see you have a pic of the zig zag fence not as high but very pretty.
    I love your coveralls and look forward to getting to know you. B
