If you've grown up on a farm or in the country I'm sure most of you have experienced the old tire swing in the tree, though I think they are seen in the city too. My husband and I were out driving last night and so I had to stop and take this shot, it reminded me of my youth, swinging on the tire trying not to get rope burn :-) We had a beautiful drive along lake Ontario, at one point we stopped by the lake and I was able to watch a family of geese with their young and capture some images...they were beautiful to watch. I've posted a new blog with some of their images, check it out if you'd like. tina-ramblingsofacountrywoman.blogspot.com/
