Thank you Comedy Plus for hosting
How their garden might have looked
The craftsmanship on this homestead was amazing. Somewhere in the homestead information, I read that descendants of the family still meet on the homestead for fellowship.

oh that was interesting to read... and it is so great that such farmhouses are still there... we LOVE to learn more about the past and the people....
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting place! I love to visit places like that.
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info boards - I like that sort of thing very much and now feel I have visited! Living a self-sufficient life is never easy, but it surely provides purpose and meaning to life of the kind that most of us have completely lost touch with. YAM xx
What a cool little place, and some great history, too. Dad says he and mom have never been quite that far up the Parkway but hope to in the coming weeks if they can get time off. They want to travel it from one end to the other. Dad also says he'd give an arm and a leg to live in a house like that, surrounded by absolutely nothing but mountains and woods. We love your header photo, and we're sorry we haven't been 'round much. Thanks for sharing your traveling photos!
ReplyDeleteGreat for clicking pictures! Reminds me when I was doing photo challenges on the blog for rural barns, homes, and out buildings. Those are some wonderful photos. We are looking for a little cabin in the woods for a couple of weeks to escape the heat and humidity. Shocking, but it is still pretty humid there.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little building and so rich in history!
ReplyDeleteVery cool! I love visiting places like this too. Thanks for sharing with us. :)
ReplyDeleteLife certainly wasn't easy at the time - but these buildings and grounds are impressive.
ReplyDeleteThat was really such a special place back in the day.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to see the old homestead so lovingly preserved and maintained for all to enjoy.
ReplyDeleteA hard life, but a good life ~ it is so, so wonderful to be able to look back, to go back to that moment in time and see and feel how life was for all those who came before. We often appreciate so little what we are blessed with today ...
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting place to visit. We enjoyed reading about all the history of the cabin and the family that lived there.
ReplyDeleteI really like those old buildings and the one with the chimney is just beautiful and I really like the fencing that matches. Such a beautiful place
ReplyDeleteI love to visit homes from generations gone by. It's good that there is so much information too. It was a hard life. Nothing like today.
ReplyDeleteThank you for joining the Happy Tuesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Happy Tuesday. Big hug, honey. ♥
The older generations could really build things that last.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I really enjoy seeing chimneys of homesteads. When driving through the country, I have passed many a standing chimney structure that I know, at one time, must have been part of a homestead....
ReplyDeletethe chimney alone is awesome; how many constructed today will still be upright....FIFTY years from now
ReplyDeletethanx for sharing C :) ☺☺♥3
That looks like a nice place to visit. We have something similar called Old Sturbridge Village. XO
ReplyDeleteThanks for the photos and history of the cabin and little farm around it. We couldn't help but think of all the hard work that went into building all of that, especially the fireplaces, without any type of power tools. Amazing!
ReplyDeleteThat is a fascinating spot, and we love the header
ReplyDeleteA beautiful homestead - love the chimney - precision stonework.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Pam
YOu're like me. I LOVE this and when I can find any homes like this, I am there. We have some in my area as well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrific living memory of the Brinegar Family! And that it is preserved is even more amazing! I love things like this. T|hanks so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWe have a place like that at the Greenway where we (used to) walk (before Xena developed a limp on long walks and it got too hot to walk far). I think they're all quite facinating.
ReplyDeleteOh, how FABulous is that??!! I loves these old homes too! I sometimes wish I could lives in one of them, then Ma reminds me that there is no AC, and I pass...BOL!!!
ReplyDeleteKisses,
Ruby ♥
