This is a classic composite of various elements from around Siskiyou County, northern California. The meadow is in the Yreka Creek Valley on the Burton Ranch. The dilaptated building is an old school house on the Fiock ranch. The horses were from the Shasta Valley and Scott Valley. The blooming apple trees were from the Scott Valley.

This is a classic contrast between the new life of spring of newborns and new buds and the old life of this dilapitated building.
