I NEED to learn more and Charles Dickens is an idea now in my head, thanks a lot, I loved this quote! And of course it fits so well with this lovely picture, Have a wonderful Sunday, Léia
Despite some descriptive writing to the extreme, Charles Dickens gave us many wonderful quotations! Love the barn wreath, and I didn't realize that Massachusetts was so rural!
I'm so enjoying your wintry New England scenes, Sunny. We've not had our first snow yet...just heavy frost and freezing fog. I love seeing all the clapboards - their lines and textures - and colour in your photos. Timber is something i don't see much of here, as you know. Your photos would make lovely Christmas cards. Lizzy :)
From the shores of New England to the Oregon coast, I would like to share some of the places that I've been and things that I've seen.
As we travel you may notice; there is an emphasis on Massachusetts...my home state, you will see a lot of barns...that I love, whether old, new or dilapidated, we are not traveling in any particular direction, and we may visit some places more than once.
Please enjoy my American Photo Journey and your comments are welcomed!

The photo in the title...
features the Far Away Farm in Ashfield, Massachusetts.
I was born in my grandmother's old mill house in Cornwall, England and came to the USA with my parents in 1958. My Dad was in the RAF and as a child I lived in many different locations in England and even the Rock of Gibraltar.
Massachusetts has always been home in the US except for a brief period when I resided in Idaho, giving me a chance to explore the Great American West. For nearly 30 years I lived on Cape Cod before my husband and I moved back to the mountains* of Massachusetts with our Goldendoodle Lucy, and our cats, Lilly and Molly. I am also the mother of a grown son.
*Some of you would call them hills but they're mountains to me!

Oh how lovely! Perfect!

Love the wreath on the old barn that needs painted. I think I need to go take a short nap, can hardly keep my eyes open for some reason.
Hi, Sunny, again another great piece of a barn and all decorated for Christmas, beautiful shot
Your quote is perfect for this photo and I had never heard it before.
Lovely photo so simple and so effective.... less is more!
Just perfection !
I could look at your barb pictures all day long, and such a perfect quote to match.
I have never thought of a wreath as a circle of hope, but I think it is perfect. Lovely.
Hi Sunny, I wish we would keep the joy that we feel at Christmas --all year long. Wouldn't that be wonderful????
Great picture and quote.
Hugs,
Betsy
Beautiful post, Sunny.
Lovely photo and quote, but I've got to say the frosty header is gorgeous!
That is such a very special photo. I love the textures of the wood and the wreath is so fitting.
Circle of hope.... I love the sentiment. Love the barn, too. Noticed that it has windows of different styles....
