I made a delivery yesterday to a farm that was hidden at the end of a track in the middle of a small rural village. I have never delivered here before, I couldn't see into the yard from the entrance to the track so I backed down to the first turn, stopped, got out and went for a look. It was only a small delivery so after looking at the first corner I put the goods in my barrow and wheeled them in, this was by far the easiest option. But what I found remarkable was the farm yard. It was one of those places which seem to exude feelings of timelessness and peace. It was as if someone had really loved the place and passed away leaving such a sense of peace and serenity that the feelings soaked into the buildings and land to remain and effect anyone entering the yard. It was the sort of place I could sit content and soak in the atmosphere. Perhaps it was just that it was a good day holding the promise of spring in its gentle sunshine, but I don't think so. I think someone had really lived that place and that's what I could feel. What do you think? Are there places that effect you like that?
