卡羅爾威克和她的丈夫擁有美國人都夢想的一小塊土地,位於華盛頓州西雅圖東南部的喀斯喀特山麓邊緣,佔地 12 公頃。從她家門口步行不遠,穿過一些牧場和一座破舊的穀倉,就能到達覆蓋她土地約三分之一的冷杉和雪松林。

Carol Wick and her husband own a small slice of the American dream, 12 hectares at the edge of the Cascade foothills, southeast of Seattle, Washington. A short walk from her doorstop, past some pastures and a dilapidated barn, is the fir and cedar forest that covers about one-third of her property.
