Eastern Oregon: It's Where We Live

Time to take a little break from the battles of the Church Militant and thank God for the glory of His Creation.

We like living in Eastern Oregon for many reasons. Here are a few:

This is the scene that greeted me this morning when I awoke.

There's some pretty cool wildlife:

A badger that found its way into our pasture...and had
a hard time getting out.

This spider wasn't really THAT big...



Within a half-hour's drive of our house, we have views like this:



And views like this right out the front door:



 The weather is very unpredictable...and unorthodox at times:

A June snowstorm in 2008

A May snowstorm in 2010

We get some big hail.

We've seen some wonderful rainbows...




...and incredible sunsets:


Fall is pretty, too:



We don't much care for the wind, though; it's taken that door off a couple of times, and blown that heavy bench right off the porch:



But, yep...all in all, we have a great place to live! Deo gratias!
