Hope in place

I grew up in the small gold rush town of Angels Camp as a fifth-generation Angels Camp resident. That puts us there at the first settling of the “camp”. After a few years of college and roaming around this beautiful country, I settled in Montgomery Creek, a much smaller place. I’m a small town girl who likes to put down roots.
I’ve been blessed in my adult life to have friends from all over the world who have shared with me rich and fascinating details of life in other cultures. I’m an activist by nature. I didn’t set out to be, I just am. But try as I might, I have never figured out how to do anything about the big world. To be honest, I feel like I can’t even think about an issue like the global economy. It makes my head spin.
