Cotton-pickin' Grandma |
Many hands make light work |
Grinding stone in the village |
Goats in the street |
Drying corn on the side of the road |

Crops ready for harvest |
Ivy vines covering the aged stone |
Stately red doorways opening to homes |
Biking through the beautiful villages |
Last weekend we went for a bike ride in the villages. Living in a small Chinese city means living only a short distance from the countryside. It is the season of harvest. Above are images we captured as we biked. We love the peacefulness and simplicity of life in the Chinese villages.
i am so jealous about how close you are to villages/nature - and that you got to go on a bike ride! so cool.
ReplyDeletewow! so glad you are getting a different taste of china than most people! love the pictures.
ReplyDeleteSo pretty!!! Looks like you had a day of fresh air, food, and sunshine! So nice!
ReplyDeleteit looks beautiful! what kind of crops were there growing there--the ones that you said were ready to pick? do you know what they use the dried corn for--just for seed for the next year, or for food?
