"You can't always get what you want,
but if you try sometimes,
you might find,
you might find,
you get what you need"
the rolling stones
Sunday was filled with snow
a long over due drive
was taken sunday afternoon
over the river
along the winding paths we crossed
climbing higher & higher
until the top we reached
looking out amongst
the wide open space
back down it was
stopping only for a moment
so one wee older one could stretch their legs
one wee little exclaims
we're here papa...we're here
able to recognize
the land so familiar
but signs were posted stating
private property
so we traveled a little farther
and this is what we found
the mountains were ours this day
not a single soul or creature could be found
i turned my back only for a second
to hear one wee littles voice echoing loud & clear
i know the pic doesn't look that great
but
one wee little
had hopped on a snowboard for the FIRST time
and was sailing sweetly down the hill
with ease & grace
one older one gently glides through the snow
my spirit filled
i can not express enough
of how i feel when spending time in the woods
does this bring back a memory???
if no...you can refresh your mind
hhhmmm
oh YES...YES...YES...YES
i did i did
i really did
&
oh so happy i tried again

Winter is a lot of fun when you live in the country; not so in the city.
