McKuster Ranch as it appears most days in the summer covered with sunshine.

Here at the ranch...

Kittee and Dale started with this scene in August 2002

A diamond that had become rough.


Since then there has been many days of allot of back-bending, hard work around here


Kittee working one of seven flower beds


1000 feet of garlic to harvest and clean


Dale building miles of fence lines

(many days by; nightfall it felt like the work was back breaking),
and


there has been days of taking life easy.

Playing croquet with family and friends...
having outdoor luncheons and petting foals.



There are days when everyone is smiling,
and

days when everybody just hangs around the farm watching the sun go by.


There is each and every day, that life on the ranch is great. With alot of hard work, it has it's rewards.

Our 3 year old loving kitten,
a gift, born on the farm

McKuster Ranch cold - foggy days in fall


McKuster Ranch covered by a rare winter snow


A beautiful frontyard autumn sunset into the Pacific Northwest. We see a lot of these.

We shoot a lot of pictures around the ranch, and we have a lot of people that stop and ask if they can take pictures of our place. So we really don't think we are too crazy about our ranch, our animals, our home, our life in Oregon.


Enjoying our Xmas coffee by the morning fire.
