| This close-knit community of farmers keeps the old-fashioned ways alive. |
 |
| Charming covered bridges grace tree-lined lanes, and horse-drawn carriages are the primary mode of transportation. |
 |
 |
| As the sun dips behind the tree-covered hills, return to Riverwood Farm. This is home....a world away...your own private hide-away. |
| My long two-pointed ladder's sticking through a tree Toward heaven still, And there's a barrel that I didn't fill Beside it, and there may be two or three Apples I didn't pick upon some bough.l But I am done with apple-picking now. Essence of winter sleep is on the night, The scent of apples: I am drowing off. I cannot rub the strangeness from my sight I got from looking through a pane of glass I skimmed this morning from the drinking trough And held against the world of haory grass. It melted, and I let it falll and break. But I was well Upon my way to sliip before it fell, And I could tell What form my dreaming was about to take. Magnified apples appear and disappear, Stem end and blossom end, And every fleck of russet showing clear. My instep arch not only keeps the ache, It keeps the pressure of a ladder-round. I feel the ladder sway as the boughs bend. --Robert Frost |
