Today I had a day off from my regular job and thought it would be a great day for a winter drive before the weather changed turning the landscape into a dirty rendition of apocalyptic ruin around here. It was a brisk 10 degrees outside so I headed south along the river and found a few things I did not expect along my way with the weather testing me each time I got out of the truck. I found the snow blowing across the road at one point, a train holding up from my drive at another point and of course an abandoned homestead allowing me a couple shots of the home in another.  I did not find much and it was not my best work but that is what it takes in photography of this type. A lot of driving for hours that never seem to end for a couple pictures you might want to keep for the long run. So today what I took with me are in the "North Dakota'", "Domesticated Animals" and "Miscellaneous" albums in the website. I hope you will take a look and I also hope for more of these kind of days to come....
