Memories of a fast fading fall in #vermont
A fall woodland.  Leaves of orange yellow red and brown cover the ground next to a well traveled mountain bike path.  Green fern bunches still stand tall among the leaves. On a smaller yellow birch tree in the foreground, trail markers in blue and red point the way. Above the markers, a custom carved and painted wooden sign presents the image of a mouse doing a wheelie on a mountain bike, with a trailer attached behind and a large piece of cheese in the trailer.  This image represents the trail name, cheddar shredder.  Cheers. A fall image typical in vermont.  A large pile of firewood sits dumped in a driveway.  Several cords worth of good, seasoned wood, harvested from the surrounding forest. Behind the woodpile sits a large woodshed.  It is newly built and sturdy. Old telephone poles have been cut down to size and sunk into the ground for the corners.  A large cattle skull of some sort, perhaps Scottish highland, adorns the top of the shed, some 15 feet above the ground. Behind the shed a dense northeast forest, adorned with fall colors awaits winter.

Some mountain zen for your reflection. #vt #vermont #mountains

Tomorrow is a national day of mourning. No celebrations are warranted. These cucks with their ‘merica fanaticism have no idea what they’ve done. But they will soon enough. 😢

Please take a few moments to let each of these despicable “representatives” know how you feel about what they did.

Sometimes you just have to…
The sun shines down through sparse winter trees. Shadows are cast across a thick layer of snow, and several ski tracks cross through the snow.  This is backcountry skiing in Vermont.

Thank you for sharing this information. I am reminded of our broken down industrial cities in the “rust belt” of America. I particularly know Weirton West Virginia.

In an effort to include some reminders of peace and tranquility, I bring you a high mountain pond in Vermont.

I’m gonna start posting some of my random beautiful (to me anyway) pictures from time to time. This feed needs that!

Finishing this one. I’ve been reading the genre a bit with Howard Frank Mosher too. In this book I love seeing the lives pass through & interact with the home & the land. I live in a nearly 200 years old home & swear I can feel the ancestors here. I like to think I provide them some comic relief.
