Last weekend during a visit to Chicago, Chicago-daughter and I took a road trip up the coast of Wisconsin to beautiful Door County.
Wineries, apples, lighthouses... what a beautiful place!
I am kicking myself for neglecting to take a shot of a quilt barn, though...
Anyway, I hope to have some photos ready soon, but in the meantime -
I spied this little schoolhouse during our "Sunday drive" in Vermont -
a couple of weekends ago.
As I was contemplating stepping over the fence to get a shot from the other side of the tire swing,
I noticed the curtains in the windows.
I'm guessing the owner wouldn't have appreciated me trampling all over their lawn...
But, what a cute little cottage this must be!
I am joining Rurality at The View from Right Here
Have a great day!
There is just something about red shutters that enhance the looks of a small cottage...great capture, & love that you were able to get the tire swing in the shot. Sooo jealous of your trip to Door County. Bet you had a wonderful time with your daughter.

What a cute little cottage school house. Love the red shutters. Looking forward to your photos of Door County. I was there many years ago and would love to go back. Loved the lighthouses.

ReplyDeleteCute little place- sometimes it is hard to tell if someone is living there or not. Love the red shutters- so quaint!
ReplyDeleteOh, this is wonderful! Love how it sets into the little hillside and the tire swing is just perfect! xo
ReplyDeleteGreat that a someone is living in the old school! Looks like there might also be a child (or someone young at heart). I love the red shutters.
ReplyDeleteLove Door County. Excited to see the photos. It has been more than a few years since we were there, but I definitely want to go back. I did casually mention to Glen, possibly a circle tour of Lake Michigan next year :)

ReplyDeleteNice, would love to see the inside! Can't wait to see your other pictures.
ReplyDeleteI adore those red shutters and pristine whiteness of the schoolhouse, while on the other hand perhaps they'd of invited you in for tea ;-).
ReplyDeleteSuch a charming old school house and Karen you are a bold, daring trespasser. :)
ReplyDeleteOh that is truly a cute little schoolhouse and yes they probably would not like you peeking in the window:) B
ReplyDeleteAwe, you were in my area of the country (almost) I love Door County, there is so much to photograph there.
ReplyDeleteYou've certainly captured this teacher's heart with this post!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the photo with the tire swing!
The school is so lovingly restored.
Looking forward to photos from your trip.

ReplyDeleteGreat photo op, Karen, as yiu saw too and just maybe the owners are used to having photographers take photos and perhaps even knock on their door...of maybe not.
