My Rural Retreat

This barn was built by my grandfather.

A bit about "My Rural Retreat". I live in rural Kentucky, in the middle of God's Country. When I was a little girl I spent hours in my rural retreat. It was wonderful...full of magic, love,peace, encouragement, and simplicity. It was only an old red barn, but oh the fun we had...if only I could go back to that time and place.

By beginning this blog I hope to rekindle that time. A time when things were slower, more simple. I hope to share some stories from the past, and from the present. I look forward to glorifying God through my words and my actions, by examining myself and my surroundings as this "My Rural Retreat" grows.

Rural Retreat is a very small town in Virginia. It is the home place of my grandfather's people. As a child I enjoyed several trips to Rural Retreat. It was like going back in time. A gift. That is why I am calling my blog, My Rural Retreat.
