Rurality: /roo-ral-i-tee/ (noun): a rural characteristic, matter, or scene, of or relating to the country, country people or life, or agriculture.
I have acutely missed having a place
where I could post my rural scenes
ever since Nancy (at ‘A Rural Journal‘)
and Lisa (at ‘Two Bears Farm‘)
discontinued their meme called ‘Rural Thursdays.’
In honor of their original work, their gracious hosting,
and my own desire to have a similar place
to post about rural life,
activities, crafts and scenes,
I have decided to begin a new meme on my blog called ‘Rurality.’
If you have a like minded love of all things rural and country
as I do (even though I’m a country girl living in a big city),
I hope you’ll join me on Wednesdays each week
to enjoy rural life together.
This week only,
the meme is falling on a Thursday,
and the linky will be open for about 40 hours each week,
on Wednesdays and Thursdays.

Here, in northwestern Washington,
near the town of Deming in Whatcom county,
a majestic view of the ‘Twin Sisters,’
craggy peaks in the Cascade Mountain Range,
with a bay in the foreground grazing,
creates a lovely rural scene.

I hope you’ll join the hop!

Very peaceful scene.
Madge – this is a gorgeous view and thank you for hosting a rural meme.
A beautiful image! Wonderfully composed with the horse and puddle of water. I really like how the mountain is reflected in that small amount of water.
Wow, the meme really took off! Congrats!
I hope to join you next week. :)
Thanks for hosting this, Madge! I’m late, but happy to share. Love this shot of yours.
I’ll try to remember this for next week, Madge.
I hope I can remember this meme…I might join it sometimes. I usually don’t join unless I am pretty sure I will have time to visit everyone…or at least attempt to visit everyone.
Beautiful photo! I was too late to enter mine.
