Old Things

Thank you, Lord, for old things.

I love old things — the old butter churn, the old wooden dry sink, this old picture. Sometimes I know an old thing's history, and sometimes I don't; but I'm good with that. An old thing's history or lack of it incites wonder, and I'll welcome a child-like sense of wonder every chance I get!

Very nice shot, like to have old things around too especially those that have sentimental value.

We like old things, too! It's how we ended up with
» mid-19th century cherry chest from my dad's family, http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2012-01-06
» my mom's maple chest-on-chest dresser that was her 16th birthday present from her parents, http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2012-01-21
» a rocking chair that came over on the boat, http://365project.org/rhoing/365/2012-01-20
The list goes on!

Very nice, and I agree too!

I love your angle on this and the lighting. It is such a warm and inviting shot.
