barn red

the snow is melting and it's bound to return. this is the second time my eyes have studied the chipped red barnyard paint and the stream that slices the land in two.

i can imagine green grass and scattered wild flowers dancing in a warm breeze along a toasty greenhouse overflowing with flowers, fruits and veggies.

the crisp red barn will be smoothed and lathered with a fresh coat of red paint. a waterwheel will rest along its side dipping into the stream again and again to stay cool.

music from another era is echoing in the background bringing back distant memories for all who visit and making new ones for the young puddle jumpers and pumpkin carvers.

Hello friend,

This photo reminds me of us. An early morning filled with fresh pancakes and blueberries. Not to mention black coffee in mason jars all on the vintage table we found at that fancy lady with the muumuu's yard sale.

We eat slow while records spin and the sun beams in on the floral pea green recliner sitting quietly in the corner.

Now we are tired so we decide to color with all the crayons we can find. I draw flowers and you design oversized cozy sweaters.


It smells sweet and there isn't any place we would rather be...

Happy Friday
ML

that lady with the muumuu had some great things didn't she?!  i love that spotlight-kinda lamp we got from her, and those curtains!  they were so beautiful- i may try to convince you to let me use one of them to make a skirt!

i bet you're glad we found this table, although i'm sure you're so sad to replace the large wooden one i brought with me from 85.

i'm so happy you and i did this farm thing.  it's the best thing we've ever done.  it's given us the freedom to be creative and unrestricted...to have fun and most importantly...to be us!

oh and, hey, mike- you're in the kitchen, right?  will you run out here?  i need some (more) coffee...
