Old Homestead


The old barn behind the house where our Mother was born reminds me of this picture. This lovely drawing comes from a book about friendship published sometime in the late 1800's. The book was given to me by my beloved friend Marian--who since has gone on to heaven.

There are cords of gold which stretch from this world into the next. I know she loves me, and she is often in my thoughts.

Very pretty. Makes me feel nostolgic!

A very beautiful old fashioned scene - I can see what you mean about Grammie's old shack-barn behind the house. I love the geese with the babies in the pond.
