Pickin' up the spring syrup!

 Before you take a look I have to apologize for the quality of images...
not great..
of course, did not think to bring my camera along as I was too focused on the excitement of finally getting our maple syrup!
So, with that in mind.....
 We were a bit late this year but off we went to pick up our maple syrup..
and there is nothing better than getting it right from the source!!
and....
nothing better than a visit to the farm....
I love it !!
 You can enjoy the scenery
and
the quaint and the typical ....
 the Québec farm house!
I love the blue....
The sloped tin roof is all about the weather and the amount of snow that gets dumped over the course of the winter....

And of course a rocker out front is fairly essential as well....
and some chairs for guests....freshly painted!
So hard to resist a photo of weathered barn wood...
wishing I had remembered my camera since my iPhone is fairly limited in quality...
Oh, what I could do with this!!
The possibilities are endless....




Taking part in Mosaic Monday at the little red house...
and of course over to Debbiedoos Newbie Party
A tantôt

    Lovely pictures of a typical Quebec home.  I love their sloping roofs and verandas.  The barn wood is beautiful.  I hope you enjoy your syrup!  My neighbour gave me a bottle they boiled up and it's yummy!  A favorite spring treat for sure.  I hope you get some sunshine soon too!  Blessings, Pamela

     I so love the color in Quebec. Finally down here in the 'south' I see more color on houses.

    Wonderful photos!
    Any one of them would make a great painting, too!

     I captured more of that colour in a post on homes in Cap à l'Aigle. I think the colour is a beautiful aspect of the charm of these old wooden homes.
