someone lived in this house once, but now it looks like that someone has gone away.
i'm sure i would have liked that someone.
how do you not like someone who paints their porch ceiling turquoise?

i have another senior photo shoot tomorrow and sunday. honestly, the places i have chosen are going to be considered trespassing {to some degree} and i'm giddy just thinking about it.
is that bad?

that's not bad.... that's adventurous... can't wait to hear about it!
ReplyDeleteTrespassing is always a good idea! And I love Modern Hepburn (can't believe the girl is only 20...) and the other 2 blogs...well thank your for the introduction!!! And I know what you mean about morning...ohhh the chill in the air. I love it!!!
ReplyDeleteCould spend some serious time at "Modern Hepburn." Enjoy your trespassing!
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun to me. You never know what's going to turn up. xo Jenny
ReplyDeleteIs it a good thing I'm color blind or am I missing a really cool porch?
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see where you take the people for the shoot.
I used to have a turquoise porch ceiling! I read somewhere a long time ago that it was de rigeur, you know, in the old days. Seemed to keep the porch cooler in the summertime, or something to that effect.
ReplyDeleteWhat'a life without adventure!
ReplyDeleteLove that porch with turq ceiling... those were very popular in New England sea captains homes, and the tradition continues...
Oh my, don't deserted houses, make you sad?
ReplyDeleteBut you have not just been sad. You have taken a lovely photo, and commemorated this one.
-giggles- Just do be careful, in the places, where.... You maybe shouldn't be. ,-)))))
But I agree, something not-quite-ok, has a way of being very, very interesting. And quite tintillating too. (Now if I could spell, this would be a better comment. -blush-)
Gentle hugs,

Your places visited...
ReplyDeleteI resonate more with the 1st and the 3rd.
But, sigh, am I about the only blogger left, who fears putting recognizable photos of children, on the World Wide Net? For the possible danger involved? -sigh-
I do know one other gal... But we seem like two tiny rafts, in an ocean full of cute-pics-of-children-grandchildren-etc.
Gentle hugs,
"Auntie"
my parents' porch ceiling is the same colour :)
ReplyDeleteof COURSE a person who paints a porch celing turquoise must be lovable. there is no doubt in my mind.
ReplyDeletelove modern hepburn and the 3rd place, with that beautiful clean, scandinavian style (sigh... i always think i want that, but somehow always end up with the opposite...)
The ceilings on my front and back porches are painted blue. I was told when I bought the house that it keeps wasps from building nests. So far I haven't seen a nest, so it must work!
ReplyDeleteinteresting reading/blog visiting you've been having ... cant wait to see what you get while( ... can I say it? dare I say it?) trespassing!!
ReplyDeleteI painted the roof of my mother-in-law's sun porch with an amazing blue. She thought I was crazy for wanting to do that and begrudgingly agreed. Only after all her friends commented on how it was such a great idea did she come around to saying she liked it.
ReplyDeleteI liked going out there no matter the weather because the blue always tricked your brain into soothing thoughts.
I would LOVE to poke around inside that house.....
ReplyDeleteit can't be bad if it looks so good. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHugs !
My family has owned a summer house on the coast of Maine for more than 125 years -- and it, too, has a colorful porch roof. I love this old house; I can almost hear the creaking of rockers and the murmuring voices on a soft, summer evening...
ReplyDeleteI remember doing that when I was little. It is such a great feeling...
ReplyDeletewouldn't it be cool if someone was reading this blog and recognized that as their old home? (The turquoise reminds me of our old kitchen when I was a kid, before my dad remodeled it in fashionable "harvest gold and orange")
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the trespassing and photo shoots. I know you will do something fun. Loves seeing the links and the photos of children, gives me ideas.
ReplyDeletethat ceiling is fantastic, the links are lovely ... so much beauty in the world and i always find more here :)
ReplyDeleteyes, these mornings are filled, with the hope of autumn.
