Hi, I'm Sara
Schurr and I've been lucky
enough to have had a very rich and varied life thus far. I
sometimes joke that each phase of my life has been so
different it might as well have been a separate incarnation. I'm married to Walter Cooke, alias Wonderful Walter. For 27 years we lived on a piece of land we call Winterhaven outside of Monroe, WA and where I tended The Garden at Winterhaven. In 2014, we sold our home there and became full-timer in our new Airstream Flying Cloud. We like to travel and hike and we share our adventures through our website, WalterAndSara.com. In 2017 we bought a winter home in Sahuarita, AZ where I began to learn to garden in the desert. And in 2019 we bought a lot in Show Low AZ for our summer home.
I've constructed this site to take you on a tour of my many incarnations and the facets of my life they represent to me. It's a chance for folks who only know one facet to get to know the rest of my story.
