About this subject

A view along a dirt road beside Rust Pond, with a stone wall and white rail fence bordering the grassy shore at left. A vintage automobile with a rear-mounted spare tire drives away down the road at right, with utility poles and trees lining the way; low mountains rise across the water under a blue, cloud-streaked sky.
