When Summer Comes to a Close

Vermont, Franklin County, Garden

It’s hard to believe that summer is coming to a close. Well, let’s be realistic it’s technically gone but some days in Texas it still feels like a Vermont summer. It’s October 29th and it feels perfect. The temperature has been in the 80’s with a cool breeze in the air, the leaves are slightly changing and we (at least I) wish I could be outside enjoying everything the world has to offer 24/7.

For today’s post, we’re taking a look back at my Vermont summer. Although only just two weeks long, this is one of my favorite places. All of the pictures are from my parents home. Views that I grew up with everyday. A brook that I played in constantly (as some childhood friends). A place of fresh, homegrown veggies, crickets in the air and a sky full of stars. Enjoy!

Heading to Justin

Last week, I was headed to Justin and I did what I do when I head anywhere, take a road that may not always be taken and see what I can find along the way. Never steers me wrong. For some reason this year, I am totally intrigued by round bales just sitting in large open fields. Rarely, do I enjoy pictures of myself but I would love to just get out there and have some pictures taken of me (or take pictures of others). What a beautiful back drop! The sunflowers make it even better!

To top it off, I found this old barn. We all know how much I love old barns (barns, windmills, old homes, the list goes on and on). I couldn’t help myself.
