This is a wonderfully irresistible part of the year. In this album, I share pictures of my 18 year old home, which grows more beautiful every year because of the natural warm textures- brick, stone and clay tiles- that were used in construction. My children, their friends, and our pets- oh, so may of them! - have grown up here. When they were young, it was a home full of nooks and crannies and mysterious hiding places. I hope whoever visits this page will look at these pictures and let their imagination take them to a time and place when things were so much simpler.
