Scenic Drive Home

I walked the nursery in the afternoon and by that time most of the snow had melted from the trees. However, when I left work today, the nursery still had a few inches of snow on the ground. Traveling just a few miles down the road the scenery was quite different; most of the snow within about 5 miles of the farm had melted and only traces remained in the fields. I travel on a country road past a small plot of land and the tame geese were out near the road - the resident of this property raises geese, chickens, a few sheep, a donkey or two and horses. Farther along on my journey the field was filled with turkeys. I grabbed my cell phone to take a picture, but the birds were too fast for me and were too far in the distance to get a good photo by the time I snapped the picture. I'll have to begin carrying my camera with me in the car.

Until next time

Hi! Found your blog through the Crain Tree Farm site...thought I'd pop in and say 'howdy'. Welcome to the blog world!!

Anxious to find out what Japanese Maples you'll be carrying in the Spring. We had a beautiful weeping variety near our front door but last April's freeze killed over half of it. So we'll be on the lookout for a new one.

Anyway, nice visiting with ya!
