It's the details...


A farmhouse in Illinois...


Every time I have ever passed it, it always looks just like this.....not a thing out of place.


Everything always looks like it has just been painted,


even all the gingerbread trim.  (Can you imagine what a job that is to paint???)

It kind of looks like no one's living there. It's a charming house, and Yes, everything is in place. I like your pictures, Rose.

I love that house.I would just put a comfy chair on that veranda and a small table to hold my coffee.

It is beautiful, especially for a farmhouse. Now I wonder about the story of who lives there.

Someone's been taking these de-clutter experts seriously. Somehow it looks rather forbidding without a few everyday items scattered on the porch. It's a beautiful building nonetheless.

Wow---- a nice home, for sure.

That sure is a lovely old house and once upon a time I would have loved to live in it. Now it would just be too big for us.
That would be quite a job to paint all that gingerbread trim and right now painting is the last thing I want to do!!!! :)
