Forty years ago when we lived outside of Philadelphia we stumbled onto the ruins of an old manor house. For the three years we lived down there I visited the ruin often, finding shards of old china ware, bits of silverware and other interesting flotsam. I love a mystery!Pondsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02407539138546412482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812046665751901579.post-39229733719938404252016-02-27T22:36:32.108+00:002016-02-27T22:36:32.108+00:00What a wonderful place, lovely to see all the flow...What a wonderful place, lovely to see all the flowers<br />Amanda xxAmanda Petershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16760505541954557539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812046665751901579.post-8184722922610618452016-02-27T17:36:33.917+00:002016-02-27T17:36:33.917+00:00By the way: I love Frances Hodgson Burnett's S...By the way: I love Frances Hodgson Burnett's Secret Garden very much - and the film is quite nice too.
