Pages Past - An Outdoor Journal

In a world of the non-stop barrage of political sound bites, the modern news cycle that used to be days in length now seems to be updated every few minutes whether we need it or not.

Day's End - IN PRAISE OF FENCEROWS

Driving north along the Hudson River, I gazed at a pastoral autumn scene: sere fields of faded yellow harvested corn, stubbly and broken amongst the clods of black earth, almost smooth from my vantage point.
