On the North Side of Winchester



On Thursday I explored a little bit of the area where 522 heads out of Winchester towards the northwest. There was still snow on the ground and the sky was pretty so it was a good time to take some pictures.

I almost drove past the Beth El building without seeing it. From the street, it doesn't look very big but there is more in the back.

The Barn Collective: Pass Route 37 and you find yourself in the country. The farms look fresh and bright in the snow.





I only drove out Golds Hill Road for a short distance because the hill ahead still had ice and snow on the road and I don't know the area. I like to be sure I can find a place to turn around if the road gets slippery.

Soon I was back is familiar territory. I've been to the Virginia Farm Market before. The big apple is a local symbol. Winchester is in the heart of apple producing territory.

  1. Love the snow in these pictures - finally got to spend some snow time with my family, although I did end up going to Norway to do it!

  4. Great to see snow (though I'm glad you're cautious on slippery roads) and how fields and barns are enhanced by it!
