Show us your digs and/or dogs?
Here's our house
I took this shot from about 15' of our property line which was behind me - our property ends about 50' behind the barn on the right, about 50' to the left of the line of trees on the right, and it includes the pond you see in the foreground. The pond is fed from a spring that rises up about 40 feet beyond the barn. A dug well there serves as our water supply. Closer up... Here it is from about 40' in from the northeast corner of the lot...it's all woods behind me. From halfway up the driveway.. This is the view from our living room, facing south back across the lawn. The town road is about 40' in from the line of trees you can see.

While I am too warm blooded to enjoy the cold (anything below about 70 F.), I have to confess this looks to me like a true winter wonderland. No wonder you enjoy it so much, Swamp. Of course, now you've got me to wondering if you are not really from some other state - that place called Mini-Soda maybe?

" I went to the woods to live, deliberately "
I too, live deliberately in the woods Swamp and while it is a lot of work sometimes, it's well worth it. I maintain 1000 feet of gravel driveway and I'll admit, sometimes it gets the best of me. Your slice of peaceful paradise looks enchanting.

Very nice Swamp. I hope you're not too far out of town. Is the pond, the swamp, where you get your name?

On my Dad's side my first ancestor in the New World bought a piece of property in 1639 that was no further than 20 miles away from where I was born. When he bought it, the land was in Connecticut, but the thieving New Yorkers got in 1683 I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Yankee. Quote:

My grandfather told me, when I was a child, that we came from a long line of Swamp Yankees that moved out of the Puritan colony in Mass. and into the "swamps" as Connecticut and Rhode Island were referred by those same Massachusetts Puritans way back when.

Seems some here on AGF have opted for the more rural lifestyle
something my wife an I decided to do in 1980 When we move from S.E. Portland Ore to Jackson Wyoming . At first we lived in a mobile home on the main highway on the end of town, but within 3 years we had bought our first property at the edge of the National Forest and then made several moves progressively further out of town . Since you asked Joe for pics thought I'd save you trouble Currently we have this place in Wyoming , and another in the Front range of Colorado Entrance Bridger Teton National Forest boundary and W. property line about 50 yds to the left ..... Nature Conservancy at E. property line about 400 yards out of view on right From almost to the National Forest boundary about 10 yards behind the photo position
