The colors of these beautiful mountains change with the seasons. There are many legends and stories about them. The year is 1765.

Everyone in the village loves him because he is friendly and helpful. He plays with the children and makes things for them. Rips wife is very harsh with him. She nags him all the time. However, he is patient and obedient. He never gets angry at his wife. He simply keeps away from her. Rip has only one bad point: he doesnt like working. He only does the things he likes. He sits on a rock and fishes all day, He walks in the forest and hunts animals. He builds fences for his friends. He helps the women in their homes and gardens. He does everyones work but not his own. His farm is the worst in the village. He never looks after his land, his garden or his house. His fences are broken. His cow eats the vegetables in his garden.
