Walk Through the Woods

The cart was loaded, the reins were tugged, and the horses began the trek back along the path they had followed, the same one I had walked to the waterline. I had the images of the harvesting, cutting, chipping and loading and I wanted to head toward the Ice House to see the unloading and storage.
As I headed off the ice, Chris Gingrich of the DuPage County Forest Preserve suggested I could take a shortcut, avoiding the path of the horses and heading straight toward the homestead. Since I had boots on, how could I resist. The result was a set of excellent images of the house, the creek, the trees and the beauty of winter.
We reach the Ice House in the next post.
