I love looking out old places like this. It really makes me think about things like, what did it look like when it was all fixed up, who lived there, and all sorts of other things. Thanks for sharing!
Oh, my word. That's one of the most peaceful, yet melancholy pictures I think I've ever seen. Makes you want to just fix the old girl up, put some rocking chairs on that porch and have some kids playing in the yard. Ah, sweetness.
Just think of all the life that happened in this rather fine house for it's period. I loved the peek of open fields of grass beyond. Those trees are shadowing this house now.. poor old place. ((hugs)), Teresa :-)
Morning Michelle, what a wonderful place it must have been once upon a time, but it still is.....Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteSo True!
ReplyDeleteCool picture and great quote.

What a dream house ! Would love to renovate it and make a small hotel out of it.
ReplyDeletePlease have you all a good Wednesday.
I agree. It isn't material things that make us happy.
ReplyDeleteYou remind me. I took some photos in October of a similarly deteriorating house in western Massachusetts. I should dig those pix out of my archives.
ReplyDeleteAmen!!!
ReplyDeleteSo very true, Michelle. I love that old house.
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Laura
What a great and wise quote. Looks like that one tree is barely hanging on...

ReplyDeleteSo true. Mostly I think happiness is a choice.
ReplyDeleteAmen. So true.

It could be so beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely true! Love the old farmhouse :)
ReplyDeleteYup! I'm thinking that this old house needs a little positive thinking, too! xx
ReplyDeleteAmen. You don't even need to own a thing...
ReplyDeleteI have started a photo project of abandoned places. When I see a home like the one in your photo I always wonder why and who.
ReplyDeleteWhat a grand home.
ReplyDeleteThe great quote for a moment distracted me from the beautiful picture!
ReplyDeleteLove the quote and would also love to see the inside of that house!
ReplyDeleteThat's a great old house, love the picture.
ReplyDeleteIt has obviously seen better days, but, wow, what a fascinating old house...I wonder who lived there and what happened to them....
ReplyDeleteI couldn't agree more with Dale Carnegie. I bet this house was a beauty back in its day.
ReplyDeleteOne could write a story about this place. Very early with an aura about it -- barbara
ReplyDeleteShe was a beauty... and it is true, what we think matters most!
