One should not wish one's life away or to go back in time either as there is so much ahead to look forward too and so much to enjoy in the present.<br /><br />Great barns. - I know though how you feel about the weather. It's been awful here the last couple of days (ice) instead of (snow) and I think I'd rather have the snow at this point.Idahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14587867197850064349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-6277536778556980222014-12-03T23:54:07.015-06:002014-12-03T23:54:07.015-06:00I've never heard the story, but it holds a goo...I've never heard the story, but it holds a good message.

I chuckled when you mentioned your daughters correcting you, because now and then my daughters want to correct my grammar on my posts, and I tell them, "I know what the right grammar is, that's just the way I talk." It's always a treat to see your red barn pictures. They have so much charm and history.<br /><br />Enjoy this Christmas season.<br /><br />~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3212581401252445388.post-37323467312043244592014-12-03T11:01:57.693-06:002014-12-03T11:01:57.693-06:00Wonderful barns!!.

I've not heard the golden thread story either, but even your succinct retelling gets the point across ;) Treasure all moments. Why do people think that tidiness is a sign of dullness? That farm just needs some gardens to soften the edges. Enjoy your evening.
