Beautiful old cabins
with swings on the porch
people laughing and drinking
keeping the fire with a torch
In the kitchen sweeping
cabins small and sweet
women with children
laughing with clean feet
Men working hard
with land to sow
feeding their families
with no money to owe
God blessed them
with a simpler time
love and laughter prevail
when life was in its prime
Our communities are tethered
together we are one
loving one another
each day having fun

Piper's Adventures 
You made tethering a positive thing.. Hmm.. Many don’t see it like that.. You are too good..Sigh! The world is not…
Thanks for sharing. I agree. Many people do not see it like that. My husband and I enjoy our journey together. We face our life issues together. We are blessed. Thanks for reading.
My county Putnam County has pretty well splattered enough that few if any of these old homeplaces still exist. But there are some still left in Jackson County and Overton County I think. Most southern people have at least one photograph of an ancestor that looks similar to this one.
Have a blessed day.
Thanks for sharing. This is one of my favorite pictures of my husband’s grandfather. It was a cute house. Thanks for reading.
Great to have roots.
