A new adventure today with Miss Katie…

I have been scoping this old cattle farm for months, looking for signs of human inhabitants. Today I packed Katie

in the stroller and we headed out of our safe little subdivision to go check it out. The fog breathed a heavy film

over the snow barricaded structures…semi scary movie. {I am still afraid of the dark at 28 years old, but I love scary movies}.

This will be a great place for spring and summer visits…surrounded by beautiful open fields and the bubbling river on the cusp of the property.

For now…its just creepy.

Great location indeed- it will be nice in summer, but it could work great now too, with the right subject.
Can’t wait to see more.
