Then If ever, come perfect days. Then Heaven tries earth if It be in tune. And over It softly her warm ear lays.' Whether we look, or whether we listen. We hear life murmur, or see it glisten. The 12 persons from Heppner who traveled to the huge Malheur Wildlife Refuge on a BMCC Field Identification Class field trip last weekend really heard life sing and saw It glisten as they Identified 108 different bird species and enjoyed seeing about 12 land and water animals In their beautiful natural surroundings. Instructor Steve Brownfield got in much Instructing and hours of skillful guiding and driving; BMCC area coordinator. Nancy Brownfield. handled the coordinating very nicely. Brendu Weygandt carefully tabulated species identified with lively assistance from sister Marsha Anderson and others. Carol Goodyear and her husband Kent were in charge of reading aloud from the route guide as Steve stopped the van at the 28 marked points of interest. Liz Curtis and husband Rick were geological consultants. Pharmacist Francis Stack provided pleasant company as he shot pictures of some interesting sights. Rachel and Ed Dick brought along their fifth-wheeler, and they and their convenient vehicle were most helpful and comforting. I surely had the most to learn about the wildlife and geological wonders of Harney County, so may have gained the most from the educational adventure. "The kindly, generous Dicks invited me to sleep inside their RV which assured the three of us the only completely dry beds on Saturday night when we returned to the Page Spring Campground to find the two group tents and sleeping bags had been soaked by the afternoon" showers Before we reached Burns, going south, we had identified 47 different birds; when we came through there on Sunday evening we had checked off 105 species. Finally viewing Frenchglen. the historic Pete French home ranch beside the Blitzen and its 1876 Ix)ng Barn and walking through the famous Round Barn (now owned by the Oregon State Historical Society really thrilled me. I had not known of the spacious Malheur Cave which we reached after a shower-soaked, slippery ride on Saturday afternoon Before we reached the cave we slopped several times to gather large puffball mushrooms which later enhanced that evening's spaghetti and tossed salad. Inside the long, arched cave we paused at the many-seat arena which we were told was built and is used by Masonic Lodge groups for ceremonies. Everyone but Rachel and I continued on inside the completely dark cavern to the interior water, guided by Steve and his coleman lantern We two grandmothers had a muddy. s!ipery problem and deicded we had seen enough of the cave, and so, flashlight-assisted, we emerged ahead of the others Visiting the refuge headquarters in its lovely park-type surroundings was a highlight. We all gained much knowledge from the excellent museum there On Sunday afternoon we drove out to the Krumbo Keservior, causing to look at a large rock carved with Paiute petroglyphs along the way. Then we traveled to the Diamond Craters where lava flowed less than 1,000 years ago out of a series of open fissures when violent erruptions brought the magma to the surface. Our last tour stop was at the Buena Vista Viewpoint where we saw a tremendous vista. The tour guidebook explains thai the area just below us "was rather recently a nearly solid growth of tules. A rehabilitation project converted some of the largely unproductive field into a grain-farming area that provides food for Canada geese, mallards, deer, etc. Most important, it is used by the greater sandhill cranes that congregate here prior to their fall migrations to the warmth of the Central Valley of California." We were impressed with the changes, mostly improvements, which have taken place there since the Paiutes have chipped obsidian arrowheads on the heights nearby. After leaving there at almost 5 p.m., Steve drove homeward, reaching Heppner soon after 9 p.m. BMCC's class on Field Identification is offered in Heppner bi-annually. Several who enrolled this year had taken the class two years ago, and several of us who were new enrollees think we may try to enroll again in 1983, if possible. Last Friday morning when I stopped at Lois Winchester's Shop to chat with Charlene Isom, I met Helen Farley Johnson who was visiting first cousins, Kathleen Hisler, Cecelia Bucknam and J.J. Farley in Heppner. She told me that she had attended school in Arlington before 1925 and knew Marion and several other Weatherfords. Helen has been living in Oakland, Calif ., for years now, but was enjoying her visit with family members and old friends here. Oscar Peterson let me read an interesting paper he wrote about the historic Junkins Cemetery out in the eight-mile area. Here, in addition to the Junkins family members, other pioneers such as members of the Cox and Johnson families lie in what is now a corner of the Donald Peterson Ranch. Oscar is a really good historian. His book on the history of the Valby Church is a significant document about early Morrow County. I hope this paper on the old, almost forgotten, Junkins Cemetery, is going to be preserved in the County Museum. Before last Friday, I had seen the steep side of the Steens Mountains from their east along the Alvord Dessert, but not from the west side which slopes much more gently into the Bitzen Valley. Our weekend camp was along the road leading up to the mountains' heights which were still white with snow. The Steens rise to 9,800 feet and the spring runoff from their snow feeds the Bitzen which carries life-giving water through the Department of Interior's Malhuer National Wildlife Refuge north to the Malheur Lake marsh. How fortunate I fel that after reading about parts of this area for years, I have now been able to travel through the region and to travel with such educational helpful and enkivable comnnnv Thr wart no shtap in America bafora 1540. f I .' f
