That’s My World Tuesday ~ 6-28-11


Mr. Stevens’ Home and Old Root Cellar 
Yesterday I posted a picture of Mr. Steven’s barn where my old Land Rover still R.I.P.’s, and today I am sharing one of his home... one of the those very, very old homes in Rockbridge County.This is a wonderful structure that dates back to the Civil War era. My shot was taken from the right side close to the barns.

That’s My World Tuesday ~ 3-15-11

Living way out in the country and loving to drive the back roads on the weekends, it is always a surprise what we are going to see. Many of the old homes have never ending yard sales going on in their front yards while others collect old cars and other junk. The owners of this one were proud to call it the “Sanford and Sons” house and told me I was welcomed to take pictures. Sadly, I didn’t get shots of the side of an old bookmobile being used as a wall for the tool shed or all of the Tonka toy trucks out doing their imaginary work, but I did not want to be “rude” by making a nuisance of myself. I learned that the blue bunny hutch up by the front proch is now a bird house because the rabbit is dead, and the old bed out in the front is being used for what it was intended...a flower bed. A family of 5 lives in this very old home.





If you think there is a lot of stuff on the left and in front of the house, you should see what is on the right and out to the back of the property. It is an amazing collection of anything and everything you can imagine. What do you find to be the most interesting item? Click to enlarge and then click gaain to enlarge even more.
