I have been told this several times by several different people – this is a healing valley. I now believe it to be true.
My second cabin is only two miles from town center versus our remoteness, but my new tenant has uttered the same. I have friends visiting next week who no longer live here, but are in the process of returning; one visit with me and they are again hooked on this grounding, calming, open, healing valley I get the privilege of calling home.
This late in the year I am still meeting new people, including a couple that plan to winter here next year. Another couple I met this summer are considering the same. This place draws you in, grabs you, and shakes your soul just enough to allow things to resettle themselves. It is a feeling that, once it takes hold, you don’t want it to let you go.
