A Sunday Drive through Cold Winter Country

The sun was shining all day from a blue sky but barely had the strength to raise the temperature. As the shadows grew longer in the afternoon, we warmed up the car for a short drive, just to escape the indoors for a little while.

This year, I am planning to highlight more of the beauty of the Western mountains of Virginia as well as nearby West Virginia. I am hoping to do a post on the traditional art of maple syrup making which will begin later on this month, depending on the weather.
