Ancient Track


Ancient Track_9x12_oil on panel_available_$325

These trees and road are the view as you enter our little farm. The road you see is the ancient road that crossed over the big hill behind us, where wagon trains and stagecoaches traveled. Then they went down the cliff edge to cross the Dix River, before the dam was built. In the summer, you could walk across on almost dry ground. But now, the modern road goes a different route, and you can no longer cross the Dix, as the dam keeps the water level high. Our driveway starts on the abandoned section, and we keep our little section clear and useful.
