Well, finally I am connected to the internet again!
Sisters is gorgeous. There are mountains all around, and the town is right in the middle of the forest. This is a photo of my house, in the far left of the photo. I am waiting until the weather clears a bit to get some good photos of the mountains - it's been overcast for a few days.
I'm living with a woman named Mary, who has 2 daughters who have just finished college. She's very artistic and the whole house is filled with original artworks. Yesterday we went over to Bend, which is the nearest large town, about the size of Ballarat. Mary's on the rodeo committee and wanted to get herself outfitted for the big occasion (the rodeo is in a few weeks). So, she took me to a second-hand country clothing store and got herself some very cool boots.
She tried to convince me to 'go country' but I'm not quite sure I pulled it off...
Then we went for a walk through downtown Bend, which has one of Oregons main rivers running through it. The houses along the river-side were amazing (this photo doesn't do them justice - it was too overcast to get good photos).
