Every evening Richard and I take a walk in the back woods of our property.  Richard has spent a lot of time out there clearing trees and removing under brush. 

In the spring, once he is able to he mows paths. They start at the car port where the picture to the left was taken and go on behind the house to the hay barn.   At the hay barn if you take a right you can walk the path along the property line in the back - then round the corner and take the path through the middle of the trees.

The dogs love the walk and it gives them some exercise after being in the house all day.  We usually stop by and check on the chickens and some nights we walk up to the vegetable garden to see how things are up there.  This is truly a pleasure to be able to take the “boys” for a walk without the worry of other dogs or cars.

It is truly a beautiful piece of property,  Richard’s hard work on the back end has given us a quite haven to enjoy on these summer evenings.  We both enjoy the walk and the dogs as they travel the landscape as they have never been there before, each evening they find something new and interesting to smell, run after or watch.  As for Richard and I we just enjoy the dogs and the peace.
