Peeping into the past-3

I featured a very old greenhouse on the 30th December and promised to give you another peep into the past. Here is a blip of the assortment of decorations that line the path from the back gate up to the door. The old man who lived here must have enjoyed collecting his colourful bits and pieces and displaying them so that he and everyone passing by, could admire them. They remain just as he left them.
It makes me think of all the relatives of people who died in Japan who will not be able to find any possessions to remind them of their loved ones.
