Take Me Home
This is another view of the road that leads to my house…..or…deeper in the woods if you go the opposite way… The dirt road is naturally a rich reddish brown color..and although it complemented the color of the supple pines…I felt that presenting this image in a desaturated or black and white image would draw your eye along the path of the road more easily…
I feel so very honored that Simon Mears has found t song lyrics to attach to this image!!! Thank you so much!!! He made my day… Check out Simon
“Memories of East Texas”
Memories of East Texas
And piney green rolling hills
Covered in the springtime
With golden daffodils
Rowing on Sandy Lake come April
Harvesting hay in June
Sitting by the road watching well-fires burn
By an old October moon
I learned to drive on those East Texas red clay backroads
And I mean to tell you my friend
They weren’t no easy roads
You had to watch out for all the curves
Down by Kelsey Creek
And detour through the Lindsay’s pasture
When the water ran too deep
Memories of East Texas
And Gilmer, county seat of Upshur
Looking back and asking myself
‘What the hell’d you let them break your spirit for?’
You know, their lives ran in circles so small
Ah, they thought they’d seen it all
And they could not make a place for a girl who’d seen the ocean

Suni Pruett
Thank you Stuart….where I live is in South East Texas…where there are tons of dirt roads…pine trees..a few lakes..insects snakes..and a few people..lol.. I live in a very rural town….in fact I dont even think we have a counted population… But…back to the point…it can be especially beautiful this time of year..when the few kinds of trees besides pine change colors.. I like it…not as beautiful as St. Margaret’s Bay…but it is very nice and peaceful!
sorry for the loooong response
