Wordless Wednesday: Thistles

By
Real Estate Agent with RLAH@properties AB95346

I took this photo last weekend in Lovettsville, Virginia.  It was from the deck of a house I sold a few months ago, and it was nothing like what I see from the decks of homes that I sell in DC.  And you know?  I could live here!

If you are planning a move to the Washington, DC area, I can help!  Call, email or text me at:

Pat...Nice photo. I grew up on a farm and we had to dig up those thistles every summer.

Have a great day!

The composition of that photo is something that should be painted and hang on a wall in a gallery.  Just gorgeous!

I go to Lovettsville and love it out there.  My neighborhood!

And I am a Scot - MacGregor and Wallace - so thistles are a part of my psyche...

I love thistles.  I have two vases of them on my mantle.  They thrive in this area and last forever when collected for interior feature.

That is a fabulous photo.

I think I recognize that barn!  I'm from VA, my Dad grew up in Leesburg, just down the road a piece from Lovettsville!  Back when it was a "burg" and not the city it is today!

Interesting photo, with personality. Vast space, cool skies, the contour of the plant, quite the impression.
