Field of Dreams


“Is this heaven?”

“No. Oregon Iowa.”

If you’ve ever seen the movie Field of Dreams, you’ll recognize that dialogue between John Kinsella and his son Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner). And, of course, it was Iowa. But here’s the Oregon version, a few days ago, in our front field - Dad and the two older kids.

"Go the distance."

Pitch it, Dad

"People will come."

“We’re keeping this field.” Ray Kinsella.

    Renae, it melts my heart, too. They had so much fun this day.

    Sarah, people who drive out here for the first time are always breathless - it’s truly beautiful! This is the place we’re renting while we build our house up the road, which is equally beautiful, but different. We do have dreams for this property we’re renting, which is why I ended with the quote “We’re keeping this field.” I’ll write about it sometime, as the Lord leads.

    Your daughter is wearing the pants I patched for her! I guess those really are her favorites!
