Michigan Scenery

One of my favorite things to do is just drive around out in the country looking for picturesque scenes to shoot.  I love shooting barns and there are plenty of them here.

 In days gone by old stumps were taken out of the ground and then arranged along the edges of property to make a fence.

 Getting the ground ready for planting!

 An old lumber mill, sitting along the bank of a little river.

Cannonsburgh Village

Cannonsburgh Village is located in Murfreesboro, TN. Cannonsurgh was the original name of Murfreesboro. This little village is a reconstructed southern village which serves as a living history museum of early southern life. It includes: a grist mill, one room school house, town hall, log home, little white country church, general store, blacksmith's shop and a large collection of antique farm equipment.

I spent most of a day just wandering from building to building and photographing the different scenes. I also spent a lot of time thinking about the people who had lived, worked and raised their families in these buildings.
