229. Gore House

Gore House was the farm of former Massachusetts governor, Christopher Gore. The owner of the "Monticello of the North" served as govenor in the early 1800s.




Gore house is located in Waltham, not far from Watertown , which is home to the Perkins School for the Blind. I've noticed more braille in the metro-west area, probably because of Perkins. It still makes me very happy to see.

228. Gated community

This gate just on the edge of Stonehurst, leads to a conservancy area. It struck me as odd and beautiful in the middle of the woods.

On to Gore House!

This flat rock and deep knell makes me think of glaciers sliding across the earth.

226. Purple mountain's majesty...

While not a mountain per se, this wide green space reminds we what is beautiful in the United States. Happy 4th of July.
