Almost Heaven

Greetings from West Virginia! I've been enjoying a relaxing week in the mountains with my family. It's a different kind of relaxing: I haven't been sitting around doing nothing, which is how I normally define a vacation. I have done some "resting" but I've also helped with my Mom's dogs and played with most cute niece and spent quite a bit of time just talking with my mom

This is my first visit to the farm since my mom and her husband bought it in the summer. The 80 acres is off of the same road on which I grew up. The property includes fields; the 100-year old farmhouse with a more recent addition; barns and other farm structures, woods, and a large creek. This place appeals to me; it is pure and serene and quiet. So quiet.

I've posted pictures below. Enjoy!

The stream is so beautiful. I am so jealous of all the fresh air that you are getting.
