"Kind words will unlock an iron gate,
a helping hand will open the door beyond."

Continuing with looking back, I found this pretty gate and doorway from one of the small towns in Florida, along with part of the cut-out wooden fencing. I wish I had paid more attention but as this was a private residence, I didn't feel I should stay too long. Unfortunately, I didn't make a note where it was. They had many quaint looking homes in the towns we traveled through.
Very wise and a classical Southern home
ReplyDeleteThank you Ruby Rose and Big Little Angels 3 :)
DeleteCool photo. I haven't ever noticed in my few travels south that the front door had the old hurricane shutters for the front door too! Makes sense. Linda in Kansas
