A View from the Hamptons

Okay, for those few who don't know...Adam and I are buying a place out in the country, up in Hamptonville, to have as a place to escape to on weekends. Okay, reality check...Adam's buying it, but he says it's "ours", so I say it's "ours"...and I love saying that. We were both born & raised in the country and love it, and it is so beautiful and relaxing there. Right now we're spending time trying to get the yard under control (waist-high grass takes a while to get knocked down), but I took a few minutes to snap some pictures of the views...

What's even better than having a barn & farm animals? Having neighbors who have a barn and farm animals! (Then you don't have to worry about the upkeep, feeding, etc...you can just enjoy the views!) This is part of the field that butts up to the front yard...



And here are some of the goats and sheep, and there's also a donkey...and possibly other animals that I haven't seen yet...it's a big field. You might want to click on this picture to make it bigger so you can see them better...

Daisies growing wild in the back yard...


A cool almost-irridescent mushroom in the back yard...


And here's the piece-de-resistance...the views of the sunset...



Ahhhhhh....now do you see why we love it so much????

Love it. You should take a before and after picture of the work you're doing.
