I'd begun on Snell Road and then toured Brigham Hill Road. That brought me to Taylor Road, where I passed lots of farm fields and beef cattle:
And homes for people who really love country living:
This appeared to be a classic old farm house:
This old trailer seemed to have been abandoned many years ago, as it was seriously dilapidated:
This nifty outbuilding stood all alone in the trees and seemed to be designed just for firewood:
And then I came to a series of trailers, set back in the woods, each a different, bright color. No one had plowed, so they apparently were not used at all, or used only in warmer weather. The first was yellow:
And then a salmon pink trailer:
And a green trailer - or perhaps I should call that color chartreuse, the color my mother painted our kitchen in a stylish 1950s update:
This was the first Amish farm I'd seen on any of the three roads I toured that wintry day, and this was their barn:
The Amish house was being insulated and had lots of clothes hanging out to dry:
Taylor Road, to my surprise, brought me right back to Route 11B, where I'd begun. This magnificent Amish farm stood at the intersection. But my driving tour was over, so I put my camera away and headed for home:
