My country house... Minha casa no sítio...

 




Me and my preferred chicken. Eu e minha galinha preferida.
I have many fond memories from my childhood and youth while in vacations at my parent's country house in Itu, an old and historic municipality in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. (Photo taken circa 1955).
Eu tenho adoráveis lembranças de minha infância e juventude, quando passava férias no sítio de meus pais em Itu, um antigo e histórico município situado no Estado de São Paulo, Brasil. (Foto tirada em torno de 1955).

  6. Every child who enjoyed the country life growing up had a favourite chicken friend and you too dear Sonia!!
    The photos of the house look so "old worldly" and look as though they have so very many stories to tell.
    Childhood photos are a treasure to still have to look at and remember times gone by as many people have discarded or lost their old photos hard as it is to believe. So happy you have yours Sonia. :)
    Enjoy the coming weekend
    Much love
    Rose

  7. Very special post Sonia! Makes me smile to see the picture of you and your chicken.. :) I loved the summers spent at my Grandad's farm riding horses. I was afraid of the chickens for a long time. Now I have friends with chickens and all is good. Good Evening to you Sonia!

  9. How lovely to spend summers in the country in a grand old house.
    My brother had a pet chicken, Lucky Linda. He got her when she fell off a truck. She truly was lucky.
