Random Photo

Oslo, Norway, July 2014. 

This old home from a bygone era was on the grounds of our hotel.  There were many of them in other areas we visited, some with the most beautiful carvings on doorways and windows. I loved seeing the grass on the roofs, and sometimes there were wildflowers.

  14. I love looking to old historical buildings, seeing the history and getting some ideas to use today. I have thought about having grass or a roof top garden on part of my house if I could do it.

  15. That is a dramatic picture that looks so good in black and white. I like the grass on the roof. Did you visit that park in Oslo that has so many old houses? Some had grass on the roof. I took many pictures there but still have not done a post.
