Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Barn Collective

A couple of barns of the many we pass on the way to church.

Linking up with Tom for his Barn Collective series.
Why not join us and post a barn picture too.


 Everything is fine and dandy
just taking a bit of a blog break.
Be back soon.
By the way this post is number 2,786.
happyone  😊

I'm reading Belgrave Square by Anne Perry
and wrote down a quote from the book that I liked.

"Too much happiness is lost because we spend our time 
regretting the past and seeking for the future 
and miss what we are given for the moment at hand.  
The gift to be happy is a blessing to all around."

...your first barn would look right at home here, but the second one with the arch roof would be a rare sight. Silos always add to the scene. Thanks for sharing and please stop back again.

Love the new look! I understand the need to take a blog break at times. I think we all need that at some point. But just so you will know...you will be missed, my friend. xx

That is an impressive number of posts. I'm happy to know that I have read most (if not all) of them. I would say you are due for a break and I hope you enjoy it.

Have a lovely break! It is looking beautifully springy here. Have you ever read Anne Perry's biography? More interesting than any of her books and the stuff of nightmares.

Michelle said...

These are a couple of gems.
