“She’s a rocky isle in the ocean
and she’s pounded by wind from the sea.
You might think that she’s rugged and cold
but she’s home sweet home to me.” *

I’m sure Newfoundland would be one of my soul places if I ever went there, but for now, home is this north east coast of England, which can be just as rugged sometimes!!!

I agree on both of your points. From what I hear and read, we are similar in many ways. 😊

Photos like yours – locations like yours – take our breath away, don’t they? They’re so much bigger than life – they remind us of how small we are, and of how magnificent Earth is.
My Home Sweet Home now is in the Boston area, near Walden Pond where Henry David Thoreau roamed the woods (and I hike around his pond often). But, to be honest, I left my heart in San Francisco (the Bay area, where I lived for 20 years). I always hope I can return some day.

I agree, Pam. Nature scenes always have a way of putting things in perspective. Saturday night I was outside looking at the stars of our Milky Way and nothing reminds me more of how small we are!
Both of your Home Sweet Homes are indeed beautiful. Would LOVE to visit them. ❤️

Beautiful colors and rugged textures! I would feel privileged to belong there. I don’t really know where my home would be, but I seem to have come to rest in NE England. It has its moments of splendor, too.

Oh, I’m sure it does, Frederick! England is still on my bucket list, though I thought I’d have it checked off by now. Someday…
Thanks for stopping by! 🙂

You live in such a beautiful part of the world, Jennifer. My home-sweet-home is Pennsylvania, although I grew up in northern New Jersey, in an idyllic small town.

I already knew you lived in that state, Barbara. Do you go back to New Jersey very often? ‘Idyllic’ sounds so nice!

Gorgeous photos, Jennifer! My “home sweet home” is the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia. I’ve never lived there, but I’d love to retire in that area.

How interesting. I did read that in your About section but I didn’t know you have never lived there! I hope you get your retirement wish. 😊

I grew up near the area, about a 40 minute drive, Jennifer. 🙂
