Carlson Farms Lake

This vista is from a vantage point on Tory Hill Drive, Near Carlson Dairy Road. As you can see Carlson Farms Lake is still somewhat frozen and the Bermuda grass on the golf course is brown, brown, brown on this quiet, winter day. 

The silo and hidden barn across the lake are leftover from the pre-golf course days when this property was a working dairy farm. Now these rolling hills are part of the Greensboro Country Club's Farm Course. During cold weather when golfers have retreated indoors, one can sit on the banks of the small lake and imagine the time when cows would meander down to the watering hole for a drink and back up the hill for food. While on this photo shoot, we did see a herd of deer, an Eastern bluebird, and a big yellow tabby cat hiding in the leafless bushes. Peaceful-- for now.........

I'd love to visit this place ... it's beautiful. I love the way you've captured reflections in the water and sun on the tree tops.
Hugs and blessings,
