Great Western Turnpike 📍

Heading outside of Leesville down towards Cherry Valley on this remote but beautiful section of US 20.

A stately old house sits outside of Sharon Springs, with the snow covered hills in the distance, and the Wal-Mart distribution center sitting on the right.

Brown, freshly fertilized farm fields, offset the pallet of grays in the sky, the tan of the winter-killed grass, the snow around. A land waits in fallow for spring to come again.

It's one of those fabled burn barrels I saw still being used out in Madison County. Freedom! Stick it to the man! Keep it out of the landfills. Good for them.

Just and old farm house under the gray skies of December.
