Day 1: The Tree by the General StoreWe live pretty far out. The Satsop Valley in Washington State is sparsely populated. More than 90 percent of the land is in commercial timber production.The nearest store is a 15-minute drive up the valley to the “town” of Matlock. I go to the store to buy things that aren’t good for me, and sometimes to just get off our farm for a bit. Both, really. The store and attached post office, a grange hall, a school and two churches. That’s about it in Matlock.There’s not a lot to see but trees and yet, I still see stuff through the familiarity and the repetition. But only if I really look.Can you see in your own backyard? @itomhyde for @burndiary #bw #mybackyard #photodiary #tree #creature
