Location:

Hope's Ranch is located just off of Highway 49, in California, south of highway 70, near the township of Beckworth. It is South east of Portola. By the time year end has ended, the ranch has expanded to several thousand acres. There are at least two houses that are on properties that are owned by the Ranch.

Year one:

Year one is when Larry returns home. Year one starts in the end of May and start of June. While it can be confusing. I like to view Year one as the year the pieces all start to fall into place.
