This is a story about a couple of city slickers who moved onto 40 acres of woods in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains of Oregon. With three kids and #4 on the way. The book chronicles how to live without running water, electricity or phone, and how one learns to make do. Living in the woods, digging a well, building a house, raising kids, having animals, meeting neighbors, and life as a pioneer was an adventure. A glimpse of life in the wilderness in the 1960s. Family photos included.
