A Year Ago Today...I am thankful for a Miracle! When we brought our Golden Retriever pup home, Kasa had diarrhea. Okay, some pups do. And she was round and sweet and loved being active in the beginning, so we didn't worry. BUT, for over a year we battled this and her throwing up along with th...

Just in a mood to show off "real estate" in the country. This barn is on Pebble Creek Road in Vernonia Oregon. This farm is located on Fishhawk Road and Highway 202 Birkenfeld OR. This old beauty no longer stands after the most severe winter in Oregon history in 2008. It was locat...
