Good Old Country Living

Today was beautiful. The sky was filled with dark clouds, and there was a brisk, chilly air blowing most of the day. Temperatures dropped to the low 30's, and tonight it is supposed to go down to about 20. It definitely feels more like the end of December. I love the view of this farm through the trees. Though it is in B/W, the sky was actually painted with a nice mix of blues.
