We can all agree that our mountains, lakes, valleys and streams are majestic.  We can all agree that it would be next to impossible for anyone to find a better place anywhere in this world to live.

Over the years, I have been privileged to visit with many people and it was in them that I found our true greatness. People like the late Mae Davis Van DerPas who lived in Bonner County all of her life. I had the opportunity to sit in her living room, with two of her six children, and talk about her family and her life. Here is her story in her own words, with some editing due to space, about her life and her time.)
