West Winfield

|

Old houses in the old village of West Winfield along US Route 20. I often want to get through this village as quickly as possible, following the speed limitation of 30 mph, because by the time I've reached here, Charles Baker State Forest isn't that far way.

Chittning Pond

Bright blue skies, hoar frost on the trees, made for a perfect back drop over Chittning Pond this Martin Luther King Day. Warm temperature meant that ice was too thin for ice fishing, but still provided a colorful backdrop to the deep blue skies.

With Martin Luther King's day beautiful bright blue skies, the hoar frost covering the trees and bushes on made for a brilliant contrast, looking down at the browns of the farm fields below.
