I’m just a Northeast city girl dreaming of some rural mountain living. Fortunately for me, that dream came true this past Fall, thanks to the AmeriCorps VISTA program. This blog is a list in photo form consisting of images (with a little text and music thrown in) that appeal to my aesthetic sensibilities and inspire me in my home-making, life-planning, and decorating endeavors. P.S. I follow back as darlindame.
