Further along the walk, up the hill, the forest makes way for a clearcut. It offers a sweeping view, a chance for contemplation, and for listening to all the sounds.

I love taking photos of cell towers, the way they catch the light of a setting sun.

The next photo is the hay field at my neighbor’s, whose property is like a private park.

Finally, a look back over the hayfields and the sun setting behind the hills to the north(!!!) Look closely and you’ll see the cell tower on the right.
