A Touch of Americana: Spent a few days back home. These scenes are so dear to me - and likely so strange to some. Enjoy! Comments and critiques always welcome.

The largest hibiscus I've ever seen. Didn't know they would grow in Illinois!

Very nice set! The only difference between men and boys is the size and cost of their toys.

Beautiful, rural America is the bread basket of the World. I could spend days on a farm and love every minute. Lived on a farm for years but it was a hard life with little profit. Life was slow and pretty boring from most modern folks. But back then...a proud way of life for many families. Thanks for sharing and bring back memories of cherished times.

I do so enjoy visiting. Sometimes I wonder if I could live there again. But I sure loved every minute I spend there. Thanks for looking and the comment.

Kathy you did a really nice job with these. I especially like #4 and 5. I love the lonely little puffy cloud in #4 and the way the road line draws you to it. I like all the texture in #5 and the diminishing row of plants. These are happy pictures.

Thank you so much. That little cloud was a real winner. I took several down through the rows. None were exactly what I wanted.
