South County Kids

All six of these lovely children (here enjoying a July day at Catoctin Zoo) get the privilege of growing up within a mile of our little hollow. The Videttis, the McCrossins, and the Downins alike share what I think might just be one of the prettiest places on Earth. Tonight, while I sat on the driveway watching Sarah Grace play, I looked east out over our yard across to the other ridges. I was struck by the vibrant colors of the mountains and this July evening sky. Despite the relentless gnats, I love it here. The rugged landscape is so different from the rolling hills of Carroll County.
