Another day, another advertisement from Time Warner Cable. I’m quite happy with my smartphone 📱 I can’t imagine why I would want internet at home.

Walking the Ridgeline

Walking the ridge line again at Partridge Run over the Switz Kill Valley. 🚶

I could have used my skis 🎿 there is a lot more snow up here than I originally expected. But my muck boots are good and dry and I can walk anywhere with the boots here and there is very little ice to my surprise.

I actually really like walking along the ridge and looking down at the rural landscape below. The farm fields and hills are always real pretty in the winter.
