The edge of Pleasant Ridge Road between Carlson Dairy and Summerfield Road is just so quiet, and hauntingly beautiful in the early hours of a cold winter night. The above house sits at the intersection with Bunch Road. It is gently decorated for Christmas and, in the shadow of the surrounding twigs and branches, it just pops out of nowhere at night.
Last night, the scene was particularly beautiful by the light of a full moon that was about 14 hours old. This low quality cell phone photo will give you a hint of an idea of the beauty. However, if you are local, you can drive out and see it for yourself. On that stretch of road, you can almost forget the hustle and bustle of the consumer driven, high traffic areas that seem to surround us these days. Can we just put up a tent and sit and look at this view all night?
Happy Friday the 13th!
It is pretty.
