This book is made up of amazing true stories of people of all sorts buying and selling Northern California Country property in the 1960's and 1970's. The pathos of the interaction of unique characters will make you laugh and then cry. Here is danger, sensitivity, love and hate. Woody Wilson tells stories that will grip your heart and keep you prisoner to the text to the very end. Here you will read about an artist whose two pet cheetahs escaped and ran loose through the Mendocino National Forest. You will meet a woman who masqueraded as her own sister. You’ll come face to face with a jeepful of outraged hunters, one of whom points his rifle menacingly while demanding an explanation for this intrusion on their hunting grounds. There are rattlesnakes, skunks, a couple who talk constantly and simultaneously, and a host of interesting characters.
