The Open Road


Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road,
Healthy, free, the world before me,
The long brown path before me leading wherever I choose.

                            -Walt Whitman (Song of the Open Road)

Long Pond Ironworks Historic District

Shots from Long Pond Ironworks in New Milford, NJ. Est. in 1766 till 1882, the village housed ironworkers and their families.
Today, the ruins of three furnaces, a country store and other unique structures still stand in various forms of decay.
Interesting piece of local history and a pretty cool family hike!
