Rusting Metal Tub, Hilltop

Hilltop pond, Spring Green, Wisconsin



You can read about Frank Lloyd Wright's life in brief on Wikipedia. The late Herb Fritz was one of Frank's architecture students at Taliesen and he purchased a bunch of land across the road from the school and named it Hilltop. A friend of mine rents a small house here where I spent this past weekend. The countryside is pretty and I enjoyed wandering around with my camera. There is a spring-fed pond up the side of a hill on the property - kinda neat because you have to walk uphill to get to the pond, set into a flattened step-like ledge of land just before a line of trees. When the horses are around, they come up here to drink.
