The creek that the kids loved playing in, especially on those warm days when the pool is closed. 8. The view in the dining room of the Shenandoah reflecting below on a winter day. 9. The driveway angles so that the sun hits perfectly during the day and melts the snow for us, saving us quite a few shoveling jobs. 10. Family hikes on the property and down to the river watching the wildlife, especially the bald eagles.
