Like most people, I’m ready for Spring. Someone posted a reminder on Facebook about turning the clocks ahead next week, which makes me happy. These pictures were from a drive this week on the way to our new home site. Even though the snow is messy & cold, it looks beautiful.
I think this house goes back to the civil war era…or at least it looks like it does. It reminds me of the poem by Robert Frost “Stopping By Woods on a Snowy Evening,” which you can read here. So beautiful & serene.
I never get tired of it…
From our ride this morning (about 14 miles). These are a few shots from the entrance to the bikeway and along the trail.
“We need the tonic of wildness…At the same time that we are earnest to explore and learn all things, we require that all things be mysterious and unexplorable, that land and sea be indefinitely wild, unsurveyed and unfathomed by us because unfathomable. We can never have enough of nature.” ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden: Or, Life in the Woods
