     Quiet People in a Noisy World chronicles our family's adventures in rural living as caretakers of a hay and cattle ranch in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon, then as caretakers of the water inlets and the watershed for the city of Bend, Oregon, then as caretakers of a Girl Scout ranch in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. We observed wildlife in natural habitat, gardened in adverse climates, lived part of the time without electricity or plumbing, saw the changes of seasons in mountain forests and meadows, and strove toward values higher than merely material values with fulfilling existence for all four of us.
