Twin Ponds

This is a picture of Twin Ponds. With a round trip of six miles, walking here is a pleasant way to get some fresh air and exercise. This picture was taken two days ago. There is a bridge on the far side where the other pond is. I have seen people fishing in the pond on the other side and people swimming in this pond. On this day, ice has formed covering most of the other pond.

Today the other pond is completely covered in a thin sheet of ice. This pond is still open. The water flows from the other pond through this one and over a stone wall in a thin and noisy stream. The snow makes the birches less visible but it's still a pretty place.
