In the early 1900's in a forgotten rural community two friends embark on a lighthearted adventure. But unfortunate tragedy unfolds and sets up an ensuing eleven month's journey in which friends, families, and neighbors traverse the joys and pitfalls of a life lost in time. In a community called the Ridge, people are not always what they seem. Change, both good and bad, follows lives spent laughing, loving, living, striving, and struggling. Disagreements occur but the community pulls together to coalesce and survive.
