After our short stop at Huntington, we hit the road to Franklin, close to the U.S. border.
Once arrived at the village, while driving on the 202, we saw a sign announcing: La pommeraie du Suroît, a charming place were they produce an excellent Ice Cider.
Tasting session in a beautiful old house, I bought one bottle of their lovely “liquor” and on our way out, one of the tenant, as he saw my camera, suggested that we took a little walk on an adjacent trail, bordered by stone fences. Sounds good to me!
I took the first shot with the Lensbaby composer.
