I love your views - beats city views hands down every time. This is one of the best known iconic views of Belfast - the twin cranes of the shipyard - we call them Samson and Goliath! Still, whenever I fly back into Belfast, I know I'm home when I see them!

She smells or sees cow poop and says eeekkk. I see cow poop and think'manure'. I smell cow poop and think, awe, the country life. I love the smell of well aged manure.
You can take the girl out of the city and make her country. :lol:

Well, the view is priceless, and to those of us who have raised cattle most of our lives, cow poop smells like money. It's real good for raising roses, too. :lol:

I was a city girl but spent summers on my aunt & uncle's dairy farm; you get used to the cow pies. Its a small price to pay for such beautiful views.

OMG - I am afraid you would NOT survive in the country! There are worse things ya know:lol: But there is----slow traffic (if you get stuck behind a vehicle it is usually a tractor!)not having to "put on airs" fresh air......wait! there ARE alot of skunks! ha - so much for the fresh air! And just "regular" people! Could you even survive on a farm in Mo, AR, or TN for a WEEK?? ha! You just MAY fall in love with it!

I see or smell it and I think "oh GREAT seasoned fertilizer that will make my plants flourish!"

Love your view!!! From 1 TN farm to another....I love the picture of the pasture, cows and fresh cut hay rolls. We usually leave ours laying in the field a day or two (unless it is going to rain) just because we love to see them laying there...

And when I slip in a cow pile...I usually just say "Oops, stepped in a pile of money" :lol: :wink: Plus...did you see my garden on the garden thread???? :shock: :D

wildyard 06-13-2010 08:27 PM

ohhh, post your lovely photos on our thread, show us your landscape!! I know the others would love to see them.

earthwalker 06-13-2010 08:31 PM

Fantastic pics...thanks everyone...I just love country life...maybe one day.

A few years ago my DH and I spent time in western N.C. and eastern TN. I had never seen so much green in my life! So beautiful. Jonesboro was one of my favorite places. We have considered moving to that area, infact.

gloryj8 06-15-2010 02:59 PM
