Passage to little ol' red "Cracker House"


The passageway leads to an old Florida cracker house on the grounds of the Cedar Key museum.

The theme for March 1 is "Passageways." Click here to view thumbnails for all participants

  1. A lovely photo, Jacob an excellent choice for today's theme. I think of passageways as being dark but yours is clever with its colour and green countryside.
    I've always loved winding paths - much better than straight ones, it makes you wonder what is at the end.
    Cheers.

  4. Following the comment above of J Bar, Rochester has lots of crack houses... some are little, some are red, but none is safe to photograph this closely. This is lovely and secluded. Any vacancy?

  11. Okay, I have to ask too: what's a cracker house?

    Whatever it may be, I can imagine sipping a cool coke and eating Carr's crackers on the porch...

  12. @ Ciel & all - Thanks very much for your comments! Here's a link re: Florida cracker houses. They are cool, I think, and more and more replicas are being built all the time.

  15. Ah, this is delightful! I didn't know about "cracker houses." I've been spending so much time working and blogging, I haven't gotten around to view, read, and comment as much as I'd like. I do appreciate your faithful :) visits.
