'Countryside'..what would you think of?

A warm, sunshine filled day, driving down a red dirt, country road with fields of crops and cows in a pasture. Barns and homesteads, horses and hay. Clean air and trees and green everywhere. the smell of honeysuckle in the air. The sound of birds and bees and blackberries growing on the roadside, waiting to be picked. Tractors and suntanned men who work hard for a living. Overalls and blue jeans and large dinners at noon with ermilk and cornbread, ice tea, field peas, corn, chicken and dumplings, banana pudding and sliced tomatoes. Homemade er and jam. A cozy fire in the evening and a handmade quilt on your bed made by your Grandmother. Up before dawn to do chores, like feeding the horses and cows, milking, getting in fire wood and gathering eggs.
