I have just a bit farther to go before I turn around and head back to the house.
At this point I am not far from Route 1.
I can hear the vehicles.
It’s nice to be walking on a dead-end road
away from the traffic.
The view was a bit different after I turned around
because I was now facing the sun
and the breeze
making it feel even colder
than when the wind was on my back.
the scenery was even prettier
because of the way the sun hit the ice and snow.
I looked up when I heard the distinct sound of a small prop plane.
That’s when I noticed this nest
probably belonging to an osprey.
there is still a lot of beauty on the ground.
The good thing about the return walk
it’s downhill.
It’s certainly cold
but I’m not quite ready to leave this wintry, frozen beauty.
I’m back to the railroad track that goes along Mark and Diane’s backyard.
This time I’m facing east.
It is time to get inside before I freeze my toes and fingers
but I must stop to get a close-up of these berries.
That was an invigorating walk.
I’m going inside now for a cup of hot chocolate.
Thanks for coming along.
Thanks for taking me along — I agree that it was very beautiful — more so with each picture!
Someday we will go for a “real” walk together!
I love these walks you take me on…you see the world the way I do
Like I said to Janet. Someday we will go for a “real” walk together.
What beautiful pictures! I love the ones with the light coming through the icy branches — really gorgeous! And of course, I love the berries — I always LOVE berries.
Thanks!
We were beginning to wonder where you were. About came with a van to get you! That would be Rt1 you could hear.
Sorry about that. I thought Rt 1 was the one you lived closest to and 295 was behind you. I fixed it. 🙂 Thanks.
