We have come to the end of the rainbow. (Hmmmm.... where's that pot of gold?) Luckily, our blog hop hostesses, Julie B Booth and Jennifer Coyne Qudeen, have not let that end our search; this month's color is brown.
The Big South Fork of the Cumberland River was the color of cafe-au-lait after torrential rains...
... as was the Cumberland River right below the Falls.
I love the character of this old building in Richmond, Virginia.
Our cabin out on the Kinniconick Creek as we put on the cedar clapboard....
Beautiful hand-made chairs at the Kentucky Guild of Artists and Craftsmen Gallery in Berea, Kentucky.
Gorgeous inlaid/carved wood piece at the National Gallery in Washington, D.C. Unfortunately, I didn't take note of the artist's name.
I hope you enjoyed my browns. To see what other bloggers have in store, go to
Jennifer Coyne Qudeen's or
Julie B Booth's blogs for a list of links!
Love your cabin in the woods and that carved/inlaid wooden piece is so rich in detail.
ReplyDeleteThere's something so warm and comforting about wood, would love a couple of those chairs to sit in and stare at the mountains.
I agree, Maya, wood is warm and comforting; I would love a couple of those chairs, too! Thanks for visiting!
Deleteun bain dans du café au lait ...un bain de beauté...:))))
ReplyDeleteThank you, Elfi; it really does look like cafe au lait, doesn't it?
DeleteWow! You've posted shots from 2 of my old stomping grounds - Berea and DC. Making me homesick for both. The shots of the Cumberland River and the falls are wonderful. Been a long time since I last visited those. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteJennifer, I can tell from reading your blog that you travel a lot; hopefully you'll get to visit DC and Berea again soon.
DeleteYou've accentuated the "ish-ness" of brown, beautifully.
ReplyDelete"ish-ness" - what a perfect way to put it! Thank you, Roxanne!
DeleteNice Cabin! Love the Cafe au lait river:)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words, Cathy, and thanks for stopping by!
DeleteNice natural selection of brown ...love the cabin!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Mary Ann!
Deletesuch wonderful brown images
ReplyDeleteglimpses of life
through you
so glad to see the brown river was due to mud, it is so striking with the shadows of the trees
Thank you Tammie! Yes, there had been several storms so the brown water was because of mud, not pollution. xox
DeleteA great post on 'brown'. Where I live me have a river like that - we call it the Mighty Muddy Fraser!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much! The Big South Fork and the Cumberland are not usually brown, it was just due to heavy rains. Normally they're a lovely shade of green-blue.
DeleteLovely cabin and that river is so thick with brown you could almost walk on it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, we do really like our cabin. and the river does look like you could walk on it!
