Road trips throughout the country looking at homesteads tucked against a fluid horizon intrigue us to discover the story behind that settlement.
I’m just passing through but what caught others to settle?

How does the natural environment set the stage for life and dwelling?
Not all home sites evoke a sense of space, but we are drawn to the overlay of life and land when it is in sync.
