Time Travel to Mid-Nineteen Century Oregon
This is a love story between a widower living in a log cabin and a widow from the twenty-first century. She accidently travels across centuries and meets
two fearless mountain men, Robert Newell and Joseph Meek. They were always ready to tell humorous stories of their fur trapping days and to share lighthearted quotes from Shakespeare, even though this was a time of horrible events – the Whitman Massacre, Cayuse Wars, and the Mexican War. They struggled with these problems while working to build Oregon Country into a functioning part of the union with laws, courts, and a newspaper called The Oregon Spectator. When they crossed paths with Chief Joseph of the Nez PercĂ© tribe and a number of the Black pioneers of Oregon, it became apparent that, unlike many of the newcomers arriving on wagon trains, Newell and Meek wanted Oregon to be a home available to all.
But even with all their experience in life in early Oregon, this situation, unlike anything these fearless mountain men had never encountered, baffled them – a woman arrived from 2003. It all happened because of a tree that still stand today in Oregon.
