An old fashioned countryside love machine.
They were used to turn the hay, before it was put in stacks to dry complete
those stacks was the favorite meeting place for countryside youth
many love stories started in a haystack in the good old days.
These stories are for good reasons not known in cities
but these hay tedders isn’t used much more
thus a part of the romance and love stories in the countryside disappeared.
With the inspiration from Ailsa and her absolutly worth visting blog
“Where’s my backpack.?“
this is my 2nd version of the travel theme this week “Meeting places“.
Le Drake Noir

Yeah sometimes I get nostalgic and sometimes romantic – I never take care if people laugh at me… 😀 😀 😀
Have a great weekend, my dear… 😉
I never laugh at nostalgic and romantic people… I feel “empatia” with them. 😉
It is the right way to deal with them… 😀
The sweet smell of hay! Nice post.
