Oh, these latest photos posted are just wonderful!! Thank-you Denise for taking the time to search for something fun and meaningful. I hope your back and ankle get better soon!
The latest cover of the Vermont Country Fair magazine has a photo of the inside of the store and its original wood stove. It is so cozy and welcoming!! I have not ever really been in an old country store like the photos show but every time I see a picture, I think of how I would love to have experienced being there!! |

| We still had one country store around in our area and dad loved to frequent it. Whenever I thought he might be headed that way I would always hang near him in case he asked if I wanted to go. I loved that old place as much as he did. |

Happy Monday!
"Red barn, your walls are a coat for me,
Protection from wind and snow for me,
Storage of food jars and blankets and cream,
A shelter and keeper of sweet childhood dream.
Red barn, your roof is a blanket for me,
Warmth and contentment and comfort for me,
Flour sacks for pillows and lanterns that glow,
A castle of scarlet on crystal white snow."
~'The Old Red Barn,' by The Homespun Wife
(Art: "Red Barn Winter," by Debbi Wetzel)

| Bonnie, sorry to hear you broke your foot. I cannot believe that sciatica can cause such pain in the ankle. The chiropractor is helping. |

Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything.
Tell God what you need, and thank him for what he has done.
Philippians 4:6
Just follow God unquestioningly.
Because you love Him so, for if you trust His judgment there is nothing you need to know.

Anyone remember the vintage type picture like this on greeting cards? I think I may have a card or two around with a similar picture on it.

| I was able to visit the Laura Ingalls Wilder log cabin home this past Fall in Osage , Oklahoma. Living conditions inside were tight to say the least, but it was still a cozy home for the times and the big fireplace was a source a heat and cooking. Since it was just one room in size, I am imaging that the long winters were hard but at least doable. What courage and determination those settlers of the West had to have to survive. |
