Is it just me but I find the oldest photo very evocative. I long for bygone times and that picture reminds me of what we have lost. I know progress means knocking down the old but I am old and I dont want to be regarded as something to be got rid of.
ReplyDeleteWow that is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining Water World Wednesday
