Homesteading Field Trip

Yesterday was a day spent up North.  We took the dog to get spayed and then went to the feed store.  Stopped to visit  a dear sister in Christ and then went on a field trip.  The field trip was to a fellow homesteader's.  I was excited to meet this woman.  She lives at the end of a mile long driveway.  She's off grid and has built a log home.  We met her goats, donkeys, horses, and a mule.  She took us to her garden, now sleeping, and her orchard.  Showed us her projects under construction and led us inside to warm up in front of a crackling fire.  Don't you love meeting fellow homesteaders?  It's like you have an understanding right off.  No need to explain things, they get it.  No need to apologize for the way you live, they totally understand.  She extended an open invitation to stop by whenever I'm back up that way.  I think I'll take her up on it.


Back to our homestead.  Lord bless your day and your endeavors.

What fun to visit with like minded folks! We were thrilled on Sunday when Carol and Rich from up your way stopped by our house for a wonderful visit!

What a blessing that afternoon was. She told me that you and them may get to meet up soon too.

Amen. So good to meet kindred spirits. Seems they are harder to come by these days. And having a mile long driveway, that would be wonderful. Blessings Glory Farm
