Rural Thursday Blog Hop # 2

I saw this little rural home out in Fincastle one day. Look at that porch! I just imagine, when the weather is warmer, someone sitting in one of those rockers playing a fiddle or a banjo and lots of fun going on, kids running around, people dancing, sharing the town gossip....just a fun old timey Saturday night! Linking to Rural Thursday Blog Hop!
