Missing Newport




I am baking pumpkin bread right now and yes my house smells heavenly. It brings back memories of my in laws place in Newport and how much I miss it there. We haven't been up there since we were freshly married so its been well over two years. *SIGH* I hope we can save up enough money and find the time to drive out there and visit for a week. This time of the year is so beautiful to. The snow should be falling soon and it just turns into a winter wonderland and amazing snow playground.

We take the quads and race around the property and sometimes drive down to the mountain and go exploring. It's not just the snow. Its the smell in the air. The freshness, and cleanliness, the bliss of taking a deep breath of feeling like you just took your first breath. You just don't realize how much the city air is bad until you in the middle of nowhere with hardly any cars or people and its just pure. And the SKY it's like being in a spaceship and looking out the window in space. It is so clear and the stars are everywhere. It's like they were just dumped out and just flooded the sky. Its amazing. Oh and the wildlife. You can be sitting on the porch freezin your butt off and the most beautiful dear will come up on the property.


In the background you can hear bears and elk but I have yet to see them yet. I hope hope hope we can get out there not only for us but for Michael as well. He needs to know what country feels like and what it looks like. He also needs to see his grandparents. Hopefully another adventure northeast awaits us soon!
