There are a set of roads that I travel routinely, my family refers to these roads as “over the hill”. I travel these roads to the town where my oldest daughter lives, on holidays to visit family, to the high school that my kids picked. Living in a small town with no high school my children had a choice of high schools from surrounding towns.
This back way is peppered with lovely homes, stone churches, white steeples, the home of the late Bill Blass and the gates that lead to Joan Rivers’s new country home..
No matter how many times I travel this way I never tire of the backdrop of my path..
Bloggers often share drive bys, so with camera in hand I would like to share with you my “over the hill.”

New England at its best
this church is across the road from the
house below...
this is a true country church ....
a road that was once a cow path...
A few days ago I walked along the edge of the lake and was treated to the crunch and rustle of leaves with each step I made. The acoustics of this season are different and all sounds, no matter how hushed, are as crisp as autumn air.-- Eric Sloane

Hi Louise,
Thank you for stopping by my blog and commenting on my little pink dress. First time I have been to your blog - ahh I could have just sat and listened to the music all nite - who is that - playing in the background. I would love to be going over that hill as well.
Stop by again soon as I will here.

I wanted to read your other blogs, you must have more yummy things for the eye, but that's ok, i am checking this posts here ;-)
Light and love to you dear!
I'd like to go walk that same tour you took us on! I'm guessing it is Vermont...am I right?
Oohh I love that landscape, those autumncolors...those buildings. You are a very lucky girl Louise, it is so good that you enjoy it, yes you are worth it! Mmm the best part might be that you share this, thanks!
Dear Louise,
I enjoyed your gorgeous photos so much. The homes and church are so beautiful. I would love a pink home and a pink barn! Those country roads are magnificent with all the green fields and the leaves changing colors. My husband is from New Hampshire and he misses that. Oh, the cows are so cute. Thank you for sharing the beautiful place you call home!
Love, Paula

Anyway, glad I found you here!!

Hi again dear Louise!
