Driscoll Road, Part 2

Driscoll Road had been lovely, but there hadn't at first been many homes to photograph. But as I continued driving, I began to see more homes and more human activity:

There was a horse farm:

And modern homes:

Older homes shaded by trees:

And woodsy homes, set back into the ever present forest:

This cute little log outbuilding caught my attention:

And it belonged to the folks who lived in this log home:

There was what appeared to be a brand new barn:

And lots of old fashioned Day-Lilies:

I found pleasant country homes all along Driscoll Road and was happy that I'd taken the time to see it. But I was on my way to town to do some shopping, so I put my camera away and concentrated on driving to Massena:

Driscoll Road, Part 1

I frequently pass the intersection to Driscoll Road on my way to and from Brasher Falls, but one day I brought my camera, planning a driving tour. This field of horses was actually on the county road, almost to Driscoll Road:

And right next to the horses, these two adorable ponies:

I then turned onto Driscoll Road:

It was straight and looked uninhabited at first as it carried me through woodlands:

Then I passed some hay fields, apparently left uncut for a few years:

I began to see some homes set back in the trees:

These were neat and trim homes and I guessed that they were owned by folks who worked in town but valued country living:

There were mobile homes, modular homes and old farm houses:

There were expansive lawns, lots of trees and the biggest skies this side of Montana:

A small and very old looking barn was set back in the trees behind these spruces:

I passed by this quiet pond, wondering if there would be more houses ahead. But I'll post about that tomorrow:
