An interesting house in the interesting Balquhidder glen. An image from Scotland, where it is green in late September.
There are more pictures from Scotland – both landscapes, urban photos, castles and flowers – in the Scotland album.
Crowded house at Great Ocean Road (Australia) of limestone stacks, a couple being 2 of the 12 Apostles and the rest, rugged cliffs. In time, the rugged cliffs will become severely eroded by the ocean and what remains will become stacks, as the other stacks (to the left in the picture) dissolve and disappear; well demonstrating the never-ending and cyclic processes of nature.

House with reflection in a pond in the Abramtsevo estate. Moscow region. Russia.
The building of the former medical building of the sanatorium, which was built next to the manor house in 1938. Here are the works of artists of the XX-XXI centuries, creatively associated with Abramtsevo. Many of these craftsmen lived and worked in the summer cottage village of Novo-Abramtsevo, founded in the 1930s near the estate.
In 1843, the estate was acquired by the writer Sergei Timofeevich Aksakov (1791–1859). Since then, many cultural figures have come here: writers Nikolai Gogol and Ivan Turgenev, historian Mikhail Pogodin, actor Mikhail Schepkin.
In 1870 the estate was bought by a wealthy industrialist and philanthropist Savva Mamontov. Two years later, the Abramtsevo art circle was conceived. Ilya Repin, Viktor Vasnetsov, Mikhail Vrubel, Isaac Levitan, Valentin Serov and others came here to visit and work.
After the 1917 revolution, the state established a museum in the estate. Now on the territory of the reserve there are architectural monuments of the XVIII-XIX centuries.
This historic house in St. Augustine, Florida, is known for its iconic gated entry. [Flickr Explore #63, June 21, 2021.]
Hey guys! *waves*
I'm back from a long hiatus. I had to take a break.
Slowly catching up on things but feeling very excited to start blogging again now that things calmed down for me.

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

Originally I thought this was a boat house because it looks like it is in the water. It has a chimney and windows though. It is constructed of wood and metal. The door seems to be too big for a house and too small for a boat. There are two buckets hanging on either side of the door. It couldn’t be a barn because you would have to take the animals through the water to get them inside. I’m stumped!
I have to find a picture of something that I can identify. There are just no write ups on these old buildings.
One of my favourite homes in Ladner. I'm fascinated by the three stacked floors, reminds me of a cake. The landscaping is impeccable, always. This is the first time I've seen it with snow, but I just realized that there were no Christmas lights despite the time of year, interesting, as this house would be enhanced by tasteful lighting, must drive by it one night, maybe they have those spotlight thingys that make trees look so dramatic.
