Is this the way to Grandmother's house

When I get up in the morning and look at the map, I think. ...oh this doesn't look too bad. Then Samantha says we aren't going that way we are going this way. It looks much longer. So today, since I decided to leave the heat, we were going to do it my way. Usually Samantha gives in after a few recalculatings. But not today. Today she said turn here even when it is a drive, or mud path smaller than the one we are on. My way was shorter and only 45 miles long but it was an experience.
At the beginning it was a road in need of repair and signs that either read, no service from October to May, , or plowed between 5pm and 7am
So this is the journey.

The road turned from broken to dirt



Then from dirt to mud and ruts


Then I was not alone.
I saw rabbits, squirrels, prairie dogs and cows.


The area was very private and simple but I am not sure where the cows live.  I have not seen a fence like this since was a kid at rice lake.
