We took a little detour from homeschool this morning and visited the Boone homestead near our home. The home of Nathan and Olive Boone was built in 1837. Nathan is the youngest son of Daniel Boone. We have visited the homestead many times but never when the house was open, we were so excited to walk in. I would have loved to be a fly on the wall and see how daily life played out.
I love this doot and corner stair case and wish we had one. :)
Back in the day, this was referred to as the Boone Mansion.
We worked hard to get this bad picture! :)
Eleanor to the rescue! She was worried he would get in the water.
Moses is one lucky little dude!

The kids had so much fun skipping rocks, I love how excited they get about simple pleasures!
The Boone homestead was a VIP in our family's life. So glad to see it being enjoyed by yours.
ReplyDeleteI love the simplicity with the bundle of greenery tied and hanging on the door.
ReplyDeleteAll the wood is lovely in the house. I meant to comment that those "bad" photos are cherished! ❤
I loved the door too! You’re right, “bad” pics are still lovely and beautiful.
