I've always been one for seeking new places and exploration. With so much to see and do in New England and beyond, it would be a shame to let certain places go undiscovered.

On Saturday I decided to explore the area just west of Boston. I've been in the area only a handful of times before but I knew it was going to be a perfect way to spend my morning. I woke up early and headed out towards Rocky Narrows & Noanet Woodlands. Shrouded in fog, the road winded through Wellesley, Dover & Sherborn, the wooded terrain giving way to wide-open farm lands dotted with horses and the occasional deer.

Saying this area is gorgeous would be an understatement. I quickly fell in love with it's farms, rolling fields, historical houses and conservation lands.

I should also note that all these photos were taken with my iphone. I had my camera with me, but decided against using it...sometimes you just have to leave it in the car. I feel like doing this forced me to immerse myself in my surroundings even more.
