Looking on the map, one might think that Raymond Road is a road one could drive

from one end to the other.

It isn’t.

Due to a gate at one end and a gate somewhere else in the middle,

the center of the road is able to accumulate a good amount of greenery.

It’s nice.

Looking to photograph a picturesque scene upon the road less traveled,

I ask my children to please run up and down the lane.

They do.

For a good explanation of how Newton’s cradle really works, watch this video:

I took my old camera— of the sort that only takes old photos— on a walk alone into the tall woods.

There I found a circle of children singing and old song and dancing in circles.

When I approached more closely, the children, the circle, and the old camera disappeared.

I found myself as an old woman, alone again, with a new camera and nothing more to photograph.
