5 years ago we started construction on our home on a bare 5 acre lot. A lot has changed since then; our family of 3 has grown to 5, we have a house, a pond full of trout, a very large garden, and many many trees. During the summer it is my duty to water the trees via hoses or buckets from the stream. We have an orchard full of baby apple trees, pear trees, a plum tree, and a cherry tree. The grass is now up to my chest. For me walking through the tall grass makes me feel so young and care free. This place is so magical especially during the summer when the sun begins to sink behind the mountains. I never though that I would end up here, where I started. I am amazed by the growing realization of God's creation. Life is miraculous. God bless Wallowa County.
