Final
curtain call...This photo combines my least favorite thing...winter, and one of
my favorite things, sunsets. Taken a few weeks ago from the parking lot of The
Triangle ll Restaurant in Belsano and looking toward the horizon, Glow Over Belsano
is a fitting and final closure to winter. Home Page Country turns its attention
to Spring...the season of new birth, new growth, new beginnings. |
