It’s nice to see the pond full again. It’s been low for a very long time due to drought. Who wants to catch some bass and blue gill?

A fox walking along the stream at The Pond caught on my trail camera. I’ve only seen a fox once in person here. That was many years ago, and it was a magical moment.

A large white tail buck and doe grazing near my camera. This spot gets a lot of wildlife action.

Getting around to checking my trail cameras. Boy did I capture some good stuff. Lots of deer and fox. I’m considering new cameras though. Swapping SD cards gets old. And the quality from these old cameras isn’t great, especially in low light.

Throwback Thursday! This photo is dated November, 1958. This is the Smith farm where my dad was born and raised. This is off Route 17 between Ickesburg and Kistler in rural Perry County, Pennsylvania.

It’s Throwback Thursday! My grandmother shoveling snow in front of her store. Maybe some time in the 1950s. Her and my grandfather owned and operated Bishop’s Store for many years in rural Perry County, PA.

Checking the trail cameras and found lots of wildlife, which is what I like to see. Several large buck are making an appearance. I caught two fighting just at the edge of the frame. Pretty cool.

Stopping on the power line for some photos as we make our way up Loop Road to Little Valley Road in Tuscarora State Forest.

It’s throwback Thursday. No date on this photo. My guess is early 1900s. Appears to be the small village of Center in western Perry County, PA. The dirt road is present day Route 274.

Still holding onto Fall. I was expecting a rainy Saturday, but it was a beautiful morning to clean up some trees that blew down and lots of branches from the storm last week.

Fowler Hollow Run at Fowler’s Hollow State Park will always be a special place for me. It’s such a beautiful park.

Making a trip out to the far western part of Perry County to visit the cemetery. It’s pretty beautiful out here when the sun begins to set. Brings back a lot of memories.

Throwback Thursday! This was the “Loysville Farm” and the Smith boys. No specific date, but likely early to mid 1950s. This farm is located west of St. Paul Church along Route 274 in Perry County, Pennsylvania.

Fall is in the air, and I love a cloudy day. Bring on some rain!

After several weekends of hard work, the stream and dam of the pond are cleaned up. I’ve got a large ash tree that needs cut up and burned, and a few pine trees. Gotta wait for better weather to do that though. It’s too dry to burn anything.

A foggy and misty day working at The Pond is better than a sunny day working in an office.

Sunrise at The Pond. I always enjoy a quiet morning watching the sunrise.

This weekend was exactly what I needed. Sitting around the campfire, surrounded by nature's sounds, and gazing up at the stars. It's these simple moments that bring me back down to earth and fill me with peace.

I captured some stars in the sky with the campfire burning and interior of the cabin dimly lit. Accessing the exposure controls on the iPhone is confusing, and not easy when working in tight spaces.

The sun sits just below the horizon, waiting to appear and light the day. What a beautiful morning at The Pond.

Happy throwback Thursday! I thought it best to share these photos together as it documents some sort of party in grandma Bishop’s kitchen. Probably the 1960’s in western Perry County, Pennsylvania.
