Sometimes I saw deer from my window.
They were a pain in the ass. So distracting.
This is the very fancy garden.
The studio building for visual artists and composers.
This is the barn. It used to be a real barn
.
I don't know the name of this thing so I called her Big Tree Lady.
One day it rained and Henry the cat slept at her feet.
This is Henry on the side porch. He came over from across the road and we all kept feeding him.
The meadow behind the house.
Behind the meadow is open prairie.
Sometimes I swung on this swing until Boo Radley chased me away.
This is how I know I was actually there.
Everything was so pretty it was sort of unreal.
This bench was called "Ye Olde Poetry Bench." Okay, so it wasn't really.
This cabin was an authentic log cabin from Indiana that was on display at the 1934 World's Fair in Chicago.
The Shaw family (Ragdale's original owners)
bought the cabin as a souvenir.
