OK, I started that morning in Stowe, and though it isn't easy to tell, these icycles are actually well nigh 10 feet long - and I only wish I'd gotten a pic of them before so many fell because this building's back is usually a wall of huge icycles ! |
More of the same - these hang next to a small path connecting 2 buildings and are actually about 7 feet long. |
On the way out of Stowe now, heading into Morrisville, on a section of road which locals refer to as Ricketson's Flats after the family that owns that farm seen 1/2 way up the road here. They have the fields on both sides of the highway, and often non-locals get angry at the times the 50 MPH road must totally stop for a cow crossing ! |
Just another view of their fields with the hills behind... |
Same field, tried to get a better view - it was actually much brighter than the camera managed to catch right then... |
180 degrees from the last shot, facing the direction of Stowe - the small looking building is actually a good sized barn on the next road over, viewed across one of their fields. |
The sun prevented any pics of the middle of Morrisville in this direction, so this is a shot after it, with a school building on the left, heading towards Elmore for morning chores... |
Same spot as the last shot, only it is easy to tell I was in the car and the glare from ythe morning sun is now visible. |
The glare was so intense in this one that the camera had to darken the whole shot ! |
Further up the road, heading for a spot maybe 1/2 way up that hill which is actually Mt. Elmore - the road goes towards the left as it rises... |
Tyler in his stall, with his blanket on (it was near 0F that morning...) and his head is down because he is eating. |
Taj in his stall, to the left of Tylers... |
Now both, and Ty is wondering WTH the 2-legger is doing NOW !? |
A view to the left of the barn with the top of Mt. Elmore in the distance... |
Their hillside field with their hay already down for the day's warming food, |
