The Country Life!

Since moving out to the country, after over 50 years in town, we have come to enjoy the country life! It is beautiful out here and common to see an unobstructed scene like this one.

Interestingly, I was sitting in the parking lot of a veterinary clinic and across the street from BiMart when I shot this picture. But it is easy to go just a little ways to be completely away from areas like that. We have two small towns close by, where we can find the necessities of life, and we are only 8-10 miles from Eugene/Springfield. So our home in the country has many advantages over the place in town we had. It is so peaceful and quiet out here! And you can see the stars in the heavens! What a joy! :)

great colours and pleased to welcome an ex-townie into the country, only hope you have better bus service than we do when your wife has gone off with the car

Beautiful! I’m heading the other way and into town. Don’t have the stamina for the farm anymore. My son is going to take over.

seems the big move has worked out to your satisfaction...certainly the area is attractive, and likely more peaceful than in town..

Nice. You just need a coffee shop to set up shop in the neighborhood and you'll be all set!
