A college coed takes a summer job as a fire watch in the Oregon Siuslaw National Forest. Through the eyes of one student, we move away from the politically charged university community into a national forest. For the first few weeks she finds the peace and serenity in nature that she was seeking. Then the situation takes a sudden shift that will challenge her to the core and change the direction of her life forever. The outcome is uncertain.
The 1960s were a tumultuous time in the US with seismic cultural changes taking place. The reactions to these events changed the course of many lives, especially college age students. All manner of rules and protocols were being tested, modified, or discarded. Female students had curfews. dress codes, and restrictions where they could live for the first two years of their college education.
This is a tale of a young woman who sought the peacefulness of the nature she grew up around to help her find her way forward in life. She experiences various adventures with growing confidence while meeting the people whose mission was to preserve and protect the national and state forests. The book is illustrated with colorful lithographs and paintings of the Pacific Northwest scenery.
