After twenty-five years on the farm, I’m adjusting to the adventures of city life. Part of that adjustment is figuring out what I want to write about now, since sheep are no longer part of my daily life. I’m challenging myself creatively by painting with pastels and playing the ukelele as I seek my new writing path.

So did you make it to Graceland before committing to your farm adventures LOL?!
You really DO have a thing for Elvis, don’t you? (‘Sokay, I could look at his beautiful face all day, too. Sigh.)
I just found your blog, and It’s really interesting.
I was raised in an urban environment, and am going to become a farmer.
I’ve been writing a blog about this.

Welcome, Future Farmer!
As for my Elvis thing, someone just suggested it’s even freakier than knitting. Huh.
But it can’t be freakier than spinning. I once saw a button that read: “Spinning, because knitting isn’t weird enough.”
