Bicycle Ride

The woods are too slushy with melting snow to venture into, so I decided to take a little spin on the bicycle and see what the local farms might offer for photos. This is the first time I’ve had the bike out since fall, and it feels great!

The first barnyard animal I happen upon is this googly eyed goat. He looks like a giant hairball with handlebar horns and Rodney Dangerfield eyes. He’s the Devil, I’m sure.

Further up the road, I was sure surprised to find a herd of buffalo. I’ve driven past here before, but I assumed those were cattle out in the field, and never took a closer look.

Finally, I found four flags fleeing across a farmer’s field. (Brought to you by the letter F)

old, abandoned barns

have old, forgotten secrets–

within and without

we may never know all that’s

buried behind the ol’ barn

Winter Walk

I’m out for a walk in the woods this morning. The weather has improved, and it’s bringing some of the wildlife out of hiding. I can’t help but notice how curious they are of me.
