Snowy Day in Massachusetts, again

Posted on February 18, 2014

Looks like these buses are looking forward to spring

These school buses reminded me about a group of people lined up for a long time waiting for the moment when spring finally makes an appearance on the horizon. Looking at this photo it seems as if they are actually having a conversation about moving to Florida.

This barn located near Franklin, Ma looks like it escape from a fairy tale book

This red barn near Franklin, Ma cannot be overseen, especially with the white and black colors of the forest as a background. The snow on the ground is also untouched. It sits there almost like a candy house. When I attempted to drive past this place it seemed as if the car stopped almost by itself indicating that the ride will continue only with a photo in the box. I could not argue with this.

Comments are very welcome:
