Route 563

When traveling along the highway we often fail to take the time to smell the roses.  We fly in a plane only to catch a glimpse of the terrain below.  We sail the oceans only to think about the mysterious and wonderous creatures below.  Our life's journey occassionaly takes us to big cities where the hustle and bustle of daily life often takes away friendly responses such as a greeting or a smile.  I personally am impressed with rural life and I sincerely enjoy looking for some unique things to photograph.  The following photos were taken on an eleven mile Pineland County Road.

Let your imagination run wild.  This fasinating river sclupture is visible from the highway.  What do you see?

The Pinelands had to endure mother nature's wrath of horrible weather in 2011.  Extreme heat, excessive inches of rain, hail and a tornado all played a part in playing havoc on the local farm industry.  This fallen pine tree disclosed an inner beauty which now compliments my garden

Wind chimes come in all sizes shapes and sounds, but this chime proved to be a classic

This sign has been in this position sice 1946.  As you can see passing time indicates the oak tree continues to claim the invader. REMEMBER to stop and smell the roses and have your pocket camera ready!!
