On the other side of the river as the
road approaches the house it winds
down a hill and comes close to the
river. Just at the foot of this hill
there is a view of a pretty landscape
with the river for a foreground.
The wooded meadow making the
principal part of the landscape
lies east of our house and is part of
the property. Note the roots of the
trees laid bare by the action of water
during freshets.
