Swan song in the Mohawk River
And a trip to the New York Farm Show....we hurried through chores this morning so we could go to the Farm Show. Although it is a long drive and the weather wasn't the greatest, we had a really nice time there. Some of the best sights were along the way though, including a pair of swans opposite the Roadway Truck Stop right here at home and some wild, snowy, trees on Little Nose Mountain. The boss took the swan photo, as he had to cross the highway to get it and frankly I was chicken.
We live in such a beautiful valley. I especially like the noses because there are no buildings or anything to spoil the view. I just hope some developer doesn't get a wild idea to build a hotel or casino on top of one of them.
ReplyDeleteHi Dan, I love the noses too. They are imposing sentinals there to the west, changing in every season. I take pictures of them all the time when we drive up that way. I missed some great shots of foggy snow drifting off Little Nose yesterday because I couldn't get the camera out fast enough.
