    Linda thank you for taking me along to that beautiful little town in New England. I am so ready to venture out since we’ve been in all winter. We live in the south and chances of us venturing that far north isn’t in our plans. Love reading about the New England history and seeing it in “person” makes it so much more meaningful. Such beautiful plants. Can’t wait to see them in your flower garden.

    Hello Linda. I've been following your channel about 2 years or so, and I have to say, you do an amazing job at capturing true New England. I'm located in MA and every time I watch your videos, I get an appreciation of where I live and the rich history I have access to in my own backyard. I absolutely adore your home and the changes you make. Keep up the good work!

    I got homesick when you went to ispich
    Concord mass is a great place to walk around and of course you have to eat at the colonial Inn

    Beautiful ideas for baskets of flowers for Easter🌷. I was wondering what to do with flowers before planting season. Love that you took time to put your lunch in a picnic basket. You are right when you take a little extra time to make things special, it makes living a little more fine. Love the historic homes and ocean scenes. Thanks once again💕

  • @Dawn-pe5to
    @Dawn-pe5to ปีที่แล้ว

    Really simple and beautiful arrangements. What a great way to enjoy these flowers inside and outside..and you choose what you want when it's plentiful and it is on hand to transfer outdoors as soon as conditions allow. That was a truly beautiful shot at the end of the snow coming down against a darkened window.

    Like yourself, the home and garden are where my creative heart lies. I wish I were physically more capable of doing what I see you and women in their twenties and thirties doing on TH-cam! They truly are amazing as are you! The seashore is where I restore my soul. I can’t quite explain why that is so but it IS my truth. Recently I saw an article in a local newspaper article about someone entering Market Square in Portsmouth, NH, my home, talking about potential ‘improvements’! 😮This sort of speculation always fills me with dread because it must be considered the main reason locals and visitors LOVE Portsmouth is exactly for the things that have NOT CHANGED ( architecture especially ) and still reflect the town’s history. Why don’t some people understand this reality?!

    @gailsprangers9388 ปีที่แล้ว

    Watching your videos always seems so calming for me. I live just a town away from Concord and spend a day now and again doing just what you did. It's my favorite town and since I was very young always dreamed what it would be like to live there. Years ago one of the old homes was for sale on the main road a few houses down from the center. Looking back, it kills me for the amount it sold for compared to what it would be now to own. The Colonial Inn is many times a request of mine for lunch with a friend or a birthday dinner. Thank you for inspiring me to get my "Spring is in the air". attitude going. I used old work boots that had belonged to my dad as a flower pot, but they disintegrated over time but love the little boots with the frog inside idea. Now I am on a mission to find a sweet small pair like yours. Sending much love and admiration!

Concord looks a very historic town, I absolutely love looking at the houses, I enjoy very much the video you made a few years ago showing different colour houses, it’s so relaxing to watch. These houses could tell such stories I’m sure. Wishing you & your Family a very Happy Easter Linda.👒🐥🐥

    A lovely video to watch while having a cup of tea! Thank you! I always enjoy your music choices too❤️ your love of homes matches mine - I once had to break up with a really nice guy because I admitted to myself ( not him) that I was only dating him for HIS HOUSE! That wrap around big wide porch out in the country - be still my heart! But God didn’t create me to be “that” kinda gal so I set him free to find real love. He was truly sweet!
