Summer Past

Last summer we spent a month with family in my homeland.  In the last year there were many updates on the farm - enjoy

the second side of the barn


curtains and paint in the library

 the gardens were full of color and flowers




 friends here and there




 a place to rest


 the garden shed



 gates to keep the deer out

 the beginning of the transformation of the pig house - soon to be a new small space just for my parents

finishing detail on the exterior of the barn

 finished interior of the second side

 a view of the chicken house


 a painting of New Mexico




 a place to quilt





 carlos's home



 a woman in the woods

 Beau

 many many tomatoes

fences and more gates

grapes growing strong

    1. Thank you Anushka - it is a great getaway and we love Beau too. Yes, the painting is of my parents house in New Mexico - it is a historic home on the historic registry. It has some cool history. Chey xo
