The Gentle Pull of Gravel Roads
The gentle pull of gravel roads, dust rolling up in the rear view mirror with the welcome sound of crunching rock announcing my departure from the daily rush and noise and mindless push to get from A to B and back again before the car behind me…a welcome detour…peaceful and still. I have learned to gladly trade the few minutes saved on the pavement for the soothing sights and sounds and slower pace of the gravel roads that twist and turn through the rural landscape that lies between my home and my workplace. I have enjoyed the discovery of weathered barns and rusted tin, old farm trucks and rolling hills that quietly wait along the side of winding gravel roads for those who dare to leave their familiar blacktop trails in exchange for a rural route, a glimpse of then, a simpler time. I have enjoyed capturing images of this rural Northwest landscape and sharing it with others. I am pleased to invite you to come along with me for the ride and explore the back roads and beauty that can be found here just off the pavement, around the next bend…my hope is that the gentle pull of these dusty NW gravel roads will bring you back again. Thank you for stopping by… 
I’ll right away clutch your rss as I can’t to find your email subscription link or e-newsletter service. Do you have any? Please let me understand so that I could subscribe. Thanks.
Thanks so much for sharing your message with me. I am still in the process of refining/setting up my website. The group that I am working with will be adding an e-mail subscription feature for my Journal entries in the near future. I am encouraged to know that you enjoyed the site…please check back in again. I hope to have the subscription feature up and running soon. I also intend to add many more images/verses to the site going forward once the galleries section of my website is set up to allow me to organize the content by subject matter. I genuinely appreciate your interest!

Hey just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content seem to be running off the screen in Firefox. I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to do with browser compatibility but I figured I’d post to let you know. The design and style look great though! Hope you get the problem solved soon. Cheers
Thank you for sharing this information with me…I appreciate being made aware of this and will alert my web host to this.
