I am doing what many other bloggers are doing, that is signing off for the weekend. Before I leave I wanted to point you over here. It is a photo tour of Martha Stewart's Turkey Hill farmstead that she owned for over 30 years.
It is a beautiful example of a classic 5-bay New England or Connecticut style farmhouse and hope that it was sold to someone who will really appreciate it as she did. Another reason I love this, is because from everything I have ever read or heard about Turkey Hill I get the impression that this house and property really transformed over time, with small and big changes throughout the 30 years to make it into the Turkey Hill we all know today. And I just love that drapware grey color of the trim and siding.
One of the first Martha books I ever read was the one she wrote about renovating this house when they first bought it! I LOVED this book and Turkey Hill, and was so inspired. I took "American Art & Architecture" in college and fell in love with Colonial architecture so this was right up my alley! I appreciate what Martha has brought to everyone in her appreciation of architectural history and renovating. It's not a surprise that you love it too!
Have a great weekend!!!

Oh, I love Turkey Hill. The photos are gorgeous. I am amazed at how it was so transformed, and the character was only increased by the renovations.
