One of the things I have always enjoyed is long and rejuvenating walks. Evening walks are best because the humidity and temperatures are low, and the colors are amazing. All my life I have lived in cities; so I would try to take my walks to the edge of town, a quiet park, or along some train tracks.The funny thing is that usually I spent half of my time just getting to a place like that where I could enjoy my walk. Things are different now though. Now for the first time in my life I live in the country! I need only walk to the end of my driveway to find myself on a beautifully scenic country road. I have already gone on several nice long walks since moving one and a half weeks ago. I would like to share some images from the walk I took yesterday evening.
Looking down the road…
One thing I love about this part of Minnesota, is that it contains a healthy amount of open spaces and pastures. This makes it a lot easier for me to adjust after spending most of my life in Kansas.
I still can’t believe I live here…
I think this view will look nice come fall.

I am not extremely thrilled that there are signs of civilization being installed in the pasture down the road. But the sunset’s colors were so superb that it was hard to not enjoy the view.

One of the horses grazing (I’m not sure which one)
And these are only the views from a short walk down my road... 
Oh what a beautiful place! :)
ReplyDeleteHaha, I know! You should visit the area sometime. :)
DeleteIn all seriousness, I am a bit wary of taking and posting too many pictures from nearby. You have set pretty high photographical standards for the neighborhood.
