When you drive up to the farm you drive on a gravel road at 10mph it forces you to look at the wildlife that is out to greet you that morning. We have made friends with the birds and bunnies. The next view always takes my breath away. I could image sitting there all afternoon reading a good book with a glass of iced tea.
Through Divine Intervention and my friend Margaret I found a farm for the girls to work on and they get a little riding in too. Driving to and from 2 days a week isn't so bad, but lack of internet access is a bummer. I guess horses don't care if they can't get on Facebook!
One of many and ruling the roost and horse stall.
Leo was the next to show his face but patiently waited until the opening was free and clear.
From a design perspective I am currently obsessed with patina. I couldn't help but drool over this barn wood and siding. My father-in-law had an old barn on his property that he took down before he sold it and brought the wood to the dump. I was blown away when I was talking about this with my hubby a few weeks ago. I was so close to such beauty and was too young to appreciate it....ever had that experience?
I hope to have a post about the reno of our downstairs bathroom that includes barn wood....stay tuned
