"I like red!" These words were carefully enunciated by (almost) 90 year old Christine as she stood on her patio talking with me. Her blue dress with red and yellow flowers pronounced her love of flowers and of course the color red.
"I'll be 90 in two months and have lived in my home here for 20 years." She was affable and animated when she addressed me -- I being an unknown to her before today.
I had stopped by to take photos of her country outbuildings painted in black and red with touches of old farm implements gathered on and around the buildings -- also painted red.
Christine told me that she and her daughter had spruced up the two outbuildings with black and red paint. The buildings were just a few feet from the roadway that passed in the front of her property.
She talked about when as a married couple they used to have a 50 acre place not to far from her now present home. They moved to this place when they got older as it was easier to care for.

Her outbuildings are now cheerful and homey. They match the warm personality within Christine.
