barn charm - morning light

It was a quiet weekend at Away -
and that was okay with me.
I managed to get out with my camera


This barn sits way up high - do you see the ski slopes off to the right?


It was a beautiful morning up on the mountain.


The cold nights and warm, sunny days have been perfect for maple sap.


Weather permitting, next week I think I'll scout for sugar shacks.

 I probably should have mentioned in my last post that the photo of the bright yellow flower was from last summer - (my bad)
As you can see - we're only dreaming about flowers up here in this little corner of the world...
Have a great week!

  11. Welcome to the club. We still have winter conditions but in 10 days or two weeks things should change. So your phots cover some good stuff...an old barn, beautiful snow and ski slopes.

  16. Beautiful, peaceful photos of the snow and the mountains, Karen! A lovely view from the barn, too! I really like the sap buckets on the trees.
    Thank you for your nice comments on my blog, Karen. Yes, I grew up just S. of Boston. We had a cabin in the White Mountains of N.H. I so miss New England. But my children were all born here in the Pacific Northwest, so here we stay. You live in a lovely place! xx

  17. The anonymous comments are spam, I'll bet. I'd delete those real quick, if I were you. I have been getting TONS of spam lately. I don't know why blogger isn't getting it seperated the way they used to, but there has been a slew slipping through into regular comments.

    Very pretty pictures...and thanks for pointing out the ski slopes! I would never have noticed them!

    1. Yes, definitely spam. Blogger seems to be doing a terrible job lately.

  20. I recommend going to your Blogger options and disallowing anonymous comments - it completely solved my spam problem!
