Our Land
These images are the reason we love to live in the country. The beauty and natural world feeds the soul, the silence is broken by birdsong and the occasional deer and wild turkey. Wild flowers and plants are amazingly abundant, believe me, I've tried to identify them and it's a long list. Firewood? obviously, not a problem. The amazing thing about this land is it's variety - a hardwood forest near the house followed by an open pasture then you travel the cedar forest to an opening into a secret pasture so silent and private you feel you are alone in the world. The pasture leads to an old pig building and farmhouse and an orchard of wild apple trees. Finally you find the river at the very very end. It's an exhilarating hike and fantastic winter wonderland to snowshoe or cross-country ski.
Enjoy these images of beautiful Eastern Ontario....
