A bowl of minestrone with a view!

Carrie Pepper's Writing Cottage in Spring



Yesterday, I meandered down South River Road and Highway 160 through Clarksburg, Courtland and Walnut Grove. I went in search of soup.


Along the way, I enjoyed beautiful waterways, huge hawks and big white herons perched atop snags and a very cool schooner that was powering along the river at a pretty good clip.  It certainly looked like the Hawaiian Chieftain (see photo here from their historical website, under full sail and compare to my shot). I could see the crew working and as I sat up on the river road in a chilly breeze, I imagined how it must be onboard the lovely sailing ship.

 

 

Here’s their website; take a drive and enjoy the view–and the soup!
