Welcome to the 43rd Time Travel Thursday linky party at the Brambleberry Cottage!
Are you ready to do some traveling? Great; 'cause time never stands still!
It's that time of year, when the Brambleberry Cottage becomes enveloped by the beautiful blossoms of the blackberry brambles.
Their pretty shades of pink and white present a lovely contrast to the other natural elements in the fields surrounding the cottage—
like the spiky green needles...
of the young pine trees...
and the muted tan blades of the field grasses.
Each unique location offers its own interesting study in contrasts.
Each unique location offers its own interesting study in contrasts.
But of the numerous spots where the brambles grow—all around our tiny farmstead—my favorite places to observe this simple beauty...
happen to be around the rustic barns and outbuildings.
Their showy blooms—set against a massive sea of flashy green leaves—seem even more delicate...
splashed upon the timeworn grays of the old barnwood.
Yet, the one location where I most enjoy their lovely display...
is the one location where their existence will be short-lived.
For while their beauty is undeniable...
and their "seemingly delicate" appearance believable...
there is really quite a thorny issue at their very core!
So rather than risk an encounter of the most unpleasant kind, the beautiful brambles around the barns will have to be banished.
But there are plenty to spare—hence the name...
