the country






How can you not love that?

A cool thing about the classes I have to take for work is that they sometimes take me into the country. It makes it less painful to drive for hours when you have beautiful rural countryside to keep you company. Above are some pictures from my drive this weekend. It was not way out in the boondocks, but it was far enough out to enjoy the countryside for a minute.

Sometimes I wonder if I could live in the country and be happy. I think I could. I love the peaceful simple feeling of the small towns; the houses with big yards and maybe some land. I adore the idea of country life. 

Then again, I have always been a restless soul. I don't know if I could relax enough for the country. I would need high speed wireless internet in my house, a Target within 20 minutes and a best friend just as restless as me to get into trouble with. Maybe I'll stick with suburbian life for now.

Great pictures and beautiful countryside. However, I too agree about the dilemma of being out in beauty but too far from a Target :)
