THE JOHNSON PLACE

Rachel captured these scenes in the "Johnson Pasture" over west on the Lonetree Ranch. The pasture was named for an early homesteading family that left Dakota in the 1940's. We stayed in touch with Victor, one of the sons, until his death about five years ago. A wonderful Christian man with a great heart. He lived most of his life as an agriculture teacher in Wisconsin. He continued to farm there as well. He was a writer for his local newspaper and he penned a couple books of memories of life on the Dakota Plains.
