Our Land in Tum Tum (2019)
Day 2
Index
Alaska & Spokane, WA
Aug-Sept 2019
We returned for one more look at the flat area of our land and the view toward the lake
Our Neighbor to the left side of our property is building down there
We can hear him working and his dog barking
We startled an owl who flew away but left this feather behind to remember him by
Compared to previous visits, our trees are HUGE!
Tiny pines hoping to grow like their neighbors
You can barely see the lake compared to our previous visits when the trees were small
This is where we once thought we might build a house
Didn't I once see this on a T-Shirt?

On our trip here in 1974 Joe planted apple seeds
Here are wild apple trees. The apples are quite tasty
