We arrived at the farm earlier than usual on Sunday. I ate lunch and got the dogs comfortable. Then I decided to take a driving tour of a nearby hamlet, Lawrenceville New York. Lawrenceville is located within the town of Lawrence, in St. Lawrence County. Do you see a common thread here?:
Most of Lawrenceville lies off of the major roads and I was surprised to find it was bigger than I'd expected. There were old stone farm houses:
And a little house on the prairie:
A magnificent barn of enormous size:
An Amish farm, everything neat as a pin, with a windmill:
Old, weather-beaten, sturdy and still functional - like me:
Um, I wondered what it might look like inside:
Now, this was a front porch I could live with. I'd sit out on it all day in my rocking chair and holler at the kids to stay off my lawn:
Perfect, small town charm, and don't fail to notice the adjacent carriage house which was part of the property:
Another old farm house with a nice front porch:
A more woodsy type of home:
And a nice, big home up on a hill. I was finding that there was more to Lawrenceville than I'd previously thought. I'll post more photos tomorrow:
