{Life} Down A Country Road

I'm sorry for the lack of posting.  I've gone country, I guess you could say.  Really, just back to my hometown to spend some much needed time with my family.  I live 800 miles away from them.  A two hour flight or a 16 hour car ride, and a year away (it seems.  Unfortunately, more often than not, a year is an accurate length of time that I'm away from them.).

The road where my mom lives was once lined with trees.  It was also a dirt road for as long as I can remember.  A few years ago, the city decided to pave the road, and cut down all of the 300 year old trees that provided a beautiful canopy of foliage.  Sad.  The upside is, across this road is a beautiful rolling pasture where two beautiful horses spend their days.  On this particular trip home, I was quite taken by these creatures.
