barn charm - another londonderry barn

"Monday, Monday - can't trust that day"...
I was singing this in my head this morning as I sat in what was essentially a parking lot on my drive to work.
Monday can truly be a rude awakening, sometimes.
Anyway -
it was a beautiful Spring weekend in Vermont -
a little hiking, a couple stops at our fav coffee shop, grilled steak on the deck...


This barn - we can't quite figure out.
I think it's new - and there has also been quite a lot of beautiful work done on this property -
- but -
no signs of farming that I can see.


No animals,
no crops,
I don't think I've ever seen any people, either.
What do you think?

random five - whisper words of wisdom

Finally - things are starting to bloom, here in New England.
And - I'm wrapping up my week of 200 mm -


which was a whole lot more fun than I expected it to be.
I'm not sure what I've learned, yet, but honestly -
limiting my choices was not a bad thing.


Anyway
Often while I'm reading your blogs,
I enjoy the quotes that sometime accompany your images.
Then I think to myself,
why don't I know any quotes?
Ponder

And guess what - I do.
They're like my own little mantras.
So today I will share five of my favorites - in no particular order.

"Peace begins with a smile." Mother Teresa

"Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans." John Lennon

"To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven" Ecclesiastes 3:1
(turn, turn, turn)

"There will be an answer, let it be" The Beatles

"Ob la di, Ob la da, life goes on" The Beatles

Hmmm, yeah - think maybe I'm a baby boomer?
And with these little words of wisdom,
I wish you all a wonderful weekend!
