Description

During a dusty Midwestern drought, Cathy Johnson stumbled upon a cool, limpid pond in northwestern Missouri and fell in love. Scraping together their savings, she and her late husband bought the pond and the surrounding 18 acres of land—a “naturalist’s playground,” as she describes it.    

In this richly detailed account, Johnson introduces us to the timid white-tailed deer, iridescent blue dragonflies, velvety meadows, deep, quiet old-growth woods, and steep limestone and loess hills carved by prehistoric rivers or piled high by receding glaciers. 

Gradually triumph over with a long-held desire to build her own cabin within the woods, Johnson determined to lift a small structure that fits the landscape hand-in-glove, where she could retreat to watch the astounding wonderful thing about the wilderness.        

Filled with fascinating geology and natural history, this intriguing narrative will inspire you to look beauty and adventure within the great outdoors wherever you’re–and to place the foundations under your individual dream.
