Big Gulch

My dear brother, David, asked me to find a few photos of Big Gulch, as he and my father have decided it is time to sell this lovely ranch. It breaks my heart to part with this place where I first lived when I moved here.

This is the wild, lonely place that Sadie dug up voles, tossing them into the air and swallowing them. She swam across the pond, wandered around the meadows, chased foxes and could stay out all night.

I was more lonely living here than anywhere or time in my life; in spite of that, I loved it with a whole heart.
