 Something different from me. The new header is of the house I grew up in. We had no front porch then, only concrete steps. The steps are down on mom's property now. I never knew they took the steps with them when they moved. They probably were original to the front porch that used to be on the house when Grandma grew up there.

I faded the picture on purpose, I wanted a 'ghost' type effect. The tree on the right is an old maple tree that our rope swing was attached too. Had more fun on that. Used to be a maple tree on the left and I've no idea why it was removed or by whom. The street, non paved, turned right at it. Maybe when they started to plow they had trouble getting around it in later years. Who knows.

At my back would of been a farm with the loveliest wooden fence. Now there are a couple houses there.

It likes a nice house to grow up in.  I still dream about the house I grew up in, sometimes, and I haven't lived there for over 40 years!

It makes a lovely header for your page.  A great house.  Mine was a small 4 room insul brick home .    Have a happy Fourth of July coming up.

4th of July I'll be tucked in AC as we hit 102 again, second day in a row. Hope no fireworks come flying in, the rockets are banned totally so no worry I guess.
