Judy P's Tickle Trunk

We stopped in Alabama longer than anywhere else on our road trip. It was nice to settle into a place. It is no longer a functioning farm; the fields have been leased for grazing and hay, but it still has that farmhouse feel. Here’s some pics:

The road to the farm.

The house was a mixture of old and new.

The welcoming red door was once the same colour as the camelias in bloom just outside. I loved the details in the wood panels.

Pretty hand-painted dinnerware

Lance’s mother crafted  this needlepoint sampler.

These items on the side table reminded me of a still life by an old Dutch master.

Evening came..

..and the moon came out.

I suppose you must be worried that if I ever come to visit I’ll be running around taking snaps of your stuff. I promise I will ask permission first. I feel that when there is a beautiful thing or scene I want to share it with others. Mostly I take pictures so that later I can recall the things which pleased me. I hope you find them pleasing as well.
