I often wonder why we here idealise it so much. Could it be purely for the beauty of the landscape and the supposed simplicity of life then.Elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04015624747225433940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-36470153337198732442009-11-15T19:44:23.856-08:002009-11-15T19:44:23.856-08:00Nice photographs , It is great to watch the images...Nice photographs , It is great to watch the images, I also think that I m in dream land sheep are there also a river .<br /><br />Great post<br /><br />Regards<br /><br />Dinesh ChandraDinesh chandrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03258082864099940181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-59502391334841645792009-11-15T18:11:14.202-08:002009-11-15T18:11:14.202-08:00beautiful pics.
