Tuck School

And there shall be pause to give thanks for the splendor that surrounds us. Pines and spruce trees heavily laden with snow - fields and meadows, brilliant in the sun, from which majestic hills rise to eternity - our first snowfall covering these glorious hills, a harbinger of winter during a very mild and balmy fall. This is the beautiful Hanover plain.
