County Route 49 In Brasher, New York

I crossed the St. Regis River from the town of Stockholm to the town of Brasher, NY on a short section of County Route 49:

And passed by a small shed and two old, abandoned silos:

This old farm house sits close to the edge of the St. Regis River:

And the St. Regis River runs for quite a distance along this section of road. Its surface was frozen and snow covered, so in many places it was hard to tell where the land ended and the river began:

I was struck by this section of snow laden tree. Once I got a closer look at the picture, however, I noticed that the entire top section of the tree was missing, probably lopped off by the power company so as not to endanger the power line:

A ranch style home with a double garage. These are folks who, like me, enjoy country living:

Rows of hay bales. I didn't see any cattle, but I'm sure they weren't too far away:

A steel-clad barn in such good shape that I couldn't tell if it was of new or old-but-restored construction:

A small, old house with a big porch and a Cedar tree, up on a hill:

A dump truck in a field full of small piles, apparently fill from some other site:

A small shed in the woods, perhaps a hunting cabin from long ago. There didn't appear to be much left of it anymore:

I ended my brief driving tour at this pleasant home. I don't know what that tower behind it is, but I suppose it must be some kind of antenna:

  1. Love your pictures. My husband and I live in Maryland and we have not had much of a winter this year. So thank you for this.

  2. Thank you. We seem to have had more than our share of winter this year, so I'm extra glad to know you've seen the beauty in it.
