  1. Impressive classroom! That’s some polish on the floor. Great shots, Klaus.

  2. Beautiful trek back in time, Klaus. The shadow on the wall, the stove and the floorboards in the shot of the classroom are wonderful.

  4. I love old buildings like this and the history behind them. The 2nd one reminds me of Granny’s cabin from the Beverly Hillbillies. :-)

  9. The world back in time had truly its own magnificent and virtuous character that we often wonder what if the world remained static, stagnant, backwater and void of advanced technology? Bet we won’t be seeing these places and the kind of life people from the other side of the world lives.

    I enjoyed this look back. There is something very beautiful to me about the church and the blue sky with white clouds is a perfect backdrop for it. I love all of wood in the school room and rustic barn and block house.
