He Created Spring

The day the Lord created "hope"

was probably the same day

He created "Spring"

March came in like a "Lion"

blowing in sleet, snow and cold.

Just one last tease of winter's day

before showering us with glorious May.

Heavenly Father 

let us be constantly aware

of your beauty 

that surrounds us always.

Country Roads~~ Take Me Home

To a Place ~~ Where  I Belong

Is this Heaven, No

It is Missouri

Thank you dear friends for your interest

and your encouragement on our adventure.

So many questions...thought I would answer them here.

10 years ago we purchased 36 secluded acres 

in the heart of Ozark Country.

We also purchased our Colorado property, 

 Post Office in a Ghost Town, which we restored.

Oh how my heart sings when I am at the old cabin....

5 years ago we sold our 36 acre Ozark property

on a land contract....due to the economy  

last summer we received the property back.

A 16 hour drive takes us to our Colorado Cabin,

a 20 minute drive takes us to our Ozark Property.

So now we are back to square one,

should we build the cabin we thought of 10 years ago?

Yes, guess not, oh maybe, we are 10 years older!!

Mr B finally said "I think I have one more cabin in me"

OK then, you can count me in dear, lets roll.

Building Site
End of the trail seclusion, cold natural spring,
whispering waterfall, wildlife
wild turkeys, deer, even a cougar.
Rock formations, walking trails
and a sweet meadow tucked in among the cedars.
It is all about the land...
I have always been connected to land and the history it holds.
Gone With Wind--Scarlet, the land is what will sustain us
Sarah Plain And Tall--land, it is always the land
Magic Of Ordinary Days--this is my land, my fathers land

This Cabin will be a gathering place, where
friends , family, and strangers will be taken back to a simple time.
A time of sitting on the porch, hearing the softness of nature, 
reading by oil lamp, telling old stories, making new memories.
Taste a bit of rustic life,  taste a bit of the Ozarks.

Everyone is invited, 
you will find the key under the mat.

Nature At It's Best

Doe With Fawn 

My Son, who lives in Wisconsin, sent me this amazing picture I must share with you all.  It was taken by a camera he has set up in his food plot for feeding the animals.  I am so proud of Joe, he respects nature, has a true love for the outdoors and all the wonders it has to offer.  How Primitive is this...................
