This day what just like any day; I had three classes to push myself through. Once I finished my classes for the day, I finally got to take advantage of the unusually warm weather for February. Since the weather was warm, I didn't hesitate to find something to do outside. I called up two of my closest friends and declared that we go to Welch's Point in Sparta. I hopped in the back of my friend Jay's car while Kristin is in the passenger seat and we hit the road. Our small road trip took about an hour. As soon as we arrived, I immediately pulled out my camera and started taking pictures. The view was so incredibly breathtaking. Even though it was not my first time at Welch's Point, it was just as beautiful as my first visit. I started taking pictures of the horizon, then the trees, and I stumbled upon a short pine tree off the side of the bluff. I was interested by this pine tree because there was only one pinecone on the whole tree. The tree was bigger than me and was full of pine needles, but there was only a single pinecone. I found that very unusual. After watching the sunset, we headed back home. I am glad we were able to take advantage of the weather.

For Squared Circle group
"I sit beside the fire and think
of all that I have seen,
of meadow-flowers and butterflies
in summers that have been;
Of yellow leaves and gossamer
in autumns that there were,
with morning mist and silver sun
and wind upon my hair.
I sit beside the fire and think
of how the world will be
when winter comes without a spring
that I shall never see.
For still there are so many things
that I have never seen:
in every wood in every spring
there is a different green.
I sit beside the fire and think
of people long ago,
and people who will see a world
that I shall never know.
But all the while I sit and think
of times there were before,
I listen for returning feet
and voices at the door."
~ JRR Tolkien, 1892-1973 ~
