Is it the color yellow?

This is the wonderful little (well I guess it really isn't little) that I fell in love with in Vermont.......I fell in love with so many houses back east that I thought I better actually share the picture, to refresh your memory.............not to say that any of you share my rather upsetting problem of "I don't remember that".
So I have been 'meaning' to share another sweet cottage, but haven't gotten around to taking the snapshots........so yesterday after dropping off a certain little companion at pre-school, I just tootled down to it and snapped away. San Antonio, Schertz, and most of the surrounding areas here have the cutest little homes........they are just bungalows........sadly I have yet to be inside any of them, so I have no idea if claustrophobia would set it, but in my mind I can picture myself living in one of them............so here are pictures of this particular house...........sadly, it isn't a home any more.........some type of business purchased it and fixed it up..........but it still is inviting.
This particular home/business is located right across the street from the church that I attend.....



I thought who ever did the re-vamping, was very considerate to put the rocking chairs on the porch.........of course we are still having 90 and higher temps, so I wouldn't be using them right away.........

The porch wraps around the house, well three quarters of it.............can you see the screen door on the side of the house........another thing that I love, screen doors...


So, I am wondering if it is the color yellow that draws me to these wonderful houses? Naw, it's the house. Someday I will be able to go inside one of these small abodes and see how small they are inside........thinking no king or queen size bed........so aren't I lucky that I just have a double

Have a good day, share a smile.........

I love little yellow houses and I am determined that the last house I live in (which hopefully will be the next one) will be just that very thing. With a big front porch and a pretty white fence.

Lovely pictures!

Hello again, Mary Ellen!

I haved lived in LOTS of houses but my 2 favorites have been a very light yellow with white trim. If we ever are able to paint this house- those will be my colors.
