Hello!:) Beautiful tranquil country scenes especially the cows in a field. I like the rolling hills and lovely old houses you found to share. The country church is charming and the carved stone interesting.

Beautiful scenery and so nice to start with the illustration -- very clever. I love old churches. Gorgeous glass. Thanks for the tour.
Beautiful views of the countryside.
I like the fox's view from the hedge and the dated stone is still in amazing shape isn't it?
such wonderful glimpses! thank you for sharing.
These photos of your English countryside almost had me feeling I was there! The medieval church looks so interesting, and the row of nasturtiums a pretty fall sight. The Pacific salmon will soon be spawning up rivers and streams here as well. Always an amazing sight. Have a wonderful week.
Wow I am very impress. The glass window depicting the Holy Family is beautiful!! Love it!
