Well, I failed at my first attempt to blog. Seems that life gets in the way of writing and sharing!
For those who do not know, we have change lifestyles in the last two years. We transferred one last time, with the military, into retirement. The last transfer moved us to a hobby farm and fixer upper home. WOW!! Talk about culture shock! We went from city and base folks to country folks with one cross country trip. We feel God has called us to live here in hickville, but it has not been easy at all times. Our first summer we worked tirelessly to get the house livable while we lived in our camper behind the house. My husband got to help the neighbor pull a dead calf (not so cute!) within 2 weeks of living here. By the time our household goods arrived, we had lived in the camper for 6 months - the house was HUGE!! We slept a few nights together in the living room ;-)
Before arriving to our homestead, we traveled the northern part of our wonderful country. Did you know Yellowstone has HUGE crows? Ok, we learned they were actually ravens - still 2 years later we giggle about that!
America really is an amazing country, and we are thankful to be able to travel and live here.
I will update with more fun stories of our transition as city hicks.
