Sparse Beauty...

A child on a farm sees a plane fly by overhead and dreams of a faraway place. A traveler on the plane sees the farmhouse and dreams of home.

  7. I love the pictures in this post, Jackie. I am especially fond of old gates and screen doors...so your second picture REALLY speaks to me.

    I look at the picture of the screen and wonder about the house that it once graced and the people who opened and closed it many times a day.

    Thanks so much for sharing the pictures with us.

    Your blog background and header are so attractive, Jackie.

  11. I love those photos, Jackie. They really make me want to get back to snapping some outdoor shots too. The Carl Burns quote is so true! (can you tell I'm taking a "catching up on blogging" break? ;)) -Tammy
