GREEN VALLEY COTTAGES
Enough talk of snow...let’s talk Spring .... Because yesterday I saw a robin perched in the birch tree at Excelsior Cottage.
And if there’s a little more snow along the way, that’s o.k. warm weather, bicycles, hammocks, and fishing poles will soon return to our valley. So, I’ll take a walk down the snowy lane, enjoying it’s beauty... while looking forward to the blooming of spring that’s just around the corner.

Jan. 22nd, 2016 The first snow fall of the winter of 2015-2016 began at 3:31 p.m. A major storm is predicted for our region, rental cancellations are made, giving the owners time to hunker down and enjoy the beauty of Green Valley themselves, which is a rare treat indeed ! First order of business...a wintery walk to the barn, around the wagon shed and down to the bridge over Bear Creek, making tracks in the snow as I savor the quiet and solitude of the Excelsior Cottage property. Snow mounts up as evening approaches. This calls for a ride into the valley to see the deer in the meadow, and the lights in the windows of Sophronia, Francena and Lory Cottages. Awe, perfection indeed ! Keeping an eye on the snow accumulations as night draw near. The plower of snow has been called and he will arrive around 2:00 a.m. to do his first pass in keeping Green Valley’s lane open. This morning the valley is covered in nearly 20” inches of snowy beauty. The maple tree outside the kitchen window is filled with birds at the feeders. Time to put on the boots, coats, gloves and scarves and head out with the shovel.
There’s a snowy day to enjoy! Spring’s coming you, know? |
