ABOUT

We downsized, quit our jobs, shed a ton of worldly possessions, and are living in Central Oregon’s high desert on the east side of the Cascade mountains. We are Jack, JQ, and Tip the border collie.

This pretty much sums up what you’ll find in these posts, along with some discussion about cooking and dining sprinkled in. We hope you will find it entertaining, even useful. And if you do please leave a comment, Thanks!
