Why I started this blog.

I thought I would provide a brief explanation

as to why I started this blog.  Some time ago

my wife and I purchased 80 acres of aspen

parkland and slough that was part of her family's

farm. It is our plan to construct a cabin there this

summer.  So I purchased a better camera and

started a blog to record this process for family.

However since I had the blog and camera

I decided to start blogging now.

The cabin will go on a natural clearing overlooking

a series of sloughs.

We have some farm land but mostly it is aspen parkland.

There should be abundant wildlife there including coyotes,

wolves, black bears, beavers, porcupines, deer, moose,

bald eagles, turkey vultures, etc.  We are really looking 

forward to getting the cabin built this year so we can spend

time there in the future. Hopefully I can get some
wildlife photos that are not magpies and jackrabbits
for a change.

"It’s all I have to bring to-day,
This, and my heart beside,
This, and my heart, and all the fields,
And all the meadows wide."
