Even though gas is $4.09 a gallon I decided to drive around today. We actually started out at the store, but the older kids were a bit of a handful touching everything. So I got a few things to add to the clown costume, and started home. Got about 2 miles from home and decide to drive around taking pictures. The first ones with the cows, and then horses are within those 2 miles of home even though I live smack in town. It may even be closer to 1 mile then 2.

 

For some reason when I left the house this afternoon I decided to take my camera. I always wish I had when I am out, so today I did. Thought I would spare anyone wanting to see these from having to click on each little thumbnail and made a slideshow instead. Hope you like the pics. They are all just scenery of the county next to mine since we live about 3 minutes to the county line. Lots of farm country out there.

Very nice. Definitely not the kind of country I think of when I think of New York state. Looks more like Tennessee! $4.09 for regular gas? *choke* The highest I've seen down here is $3.85 and I bought it yesterday for $3.75. Guess I'd better enjoy those "low" prices while I can....

Oh I know. You think NY and you think NYC. When we moved here I wasn't expecting a big city, but I certainly wasn't expecting open fields, farm land, and plentiful wild life. Driving down the road it's nothing to see a flock of turkeys, a family of deer, a ground hog, or even a fox. My husband once saw a black bear running toward the road (the bear, not the husband), when he was on his way to work (the husband, not the bear haha).

Re: Photos I took driving around today
I live in southeast Tennessee, in a large subdivision out in the county, and we see deer occasionally (even in some front yards), ground hogs, the occasional turkey (I did see a whole flock of them late last year but that was a first), and lots of raccoons and possums dead on the road, and the occasional fox and even beaver (dead on the road, unfortunately). Also unfortunately, we have coyotes around here which have been seen on numerous occasions and are thought to have killed dogs and cats - over the years there have been a number of cats that have simply disappeared from the immediate area around my house - including one of my own cats.  I hope something is done about them before a child is hurt or killed - I hear there is a den of them in another part of the county.

Wow, coyotes! State animal control needs to trap and move them.

 

I forgot to mention the skunks! My husband saw one in our backyard once. After that I have kept large cans of tomato juice on hand. haha

Thanks. I've always wanted to have at least 25 acres. I don't know how we ended up in town. And wouldn't you know it, I'm the one who picked this house!

Great pictures! Looks a lot like the countryside I have around near me.

Thanks. I'm shocked at how much country we have around here. When you think of New York you always think of New York City, and it's not like that here at all.
