Wow! Such a wonderful addition to "Gimme That Ol Time Religion." The colors are so vibrant and rich. I love the crop and the floral border. I feel like I am walking the wrong way on the road! Great!
You can never be walking the wrong way on this road Charlie - it invites you to go in any direction you choose. I'm so thrilled that you liked it!

Josie than you so much hon for this honor - I'm so very pleased and very happy to pay it forward for sure! Hope you discovered you'd already been one of my choices too!
I've returned to this many times, Lianne. I used to live near an Amish settlement in Northwestern Montana and I still distinctly recall the clippedy clop cadence of their buggies in the morning. Lovely and unforgettable sound in the muting forest. Thanks for invoking the memory. And congratulations on your feature.
Carl you say the nicest things - and thank you so much for that. Art should evoke - feelings, memories, wishes, dreams. If it doesn't, what's the point?? Thank you.
Lovely, lovely lianne! Relaxing, refreshing moment in time. Mahalo for adding this to our artculturepeace365 group gallery!
Ah you are so welcome - I'm so happy that you liked it.

Gorgeous colours and light.
Thanks so much Sybille - that means a lot.
Just beautiful Lianne. Simpler times were in so many ways the best times. People loving and needing each other in a not so busy time. I remember my aunt's house having a porch, inviting for long sits and conversations. I like what Robert Stevenson wrote. Love the series
!!
I agree Alli - but perhaps we romanticize and it wasn't so great. Just seems like it. But thank you.
So Beautiful Lianne! Those shades of red are spectacular, and the sense of simplicity, so attractive. I'll be back to read your description!
You're so lovely Fred - thank you for always being so supportive.
Super image Lianne!
Thank you so much my wonderful friend xo
What a spectacular way to start the day, Lianne! I like this series....
Gosh I'm sorry Carl - I should have gotten to these thank yous ages ago! But I hope you know how much it means.
