Sounds terrific —all the best to you both!
Thanks! We both had been planning a life like that for ourselves, alone. Luckily we started dating five years ago (we’ve known one another for 30+ years; I divorced, he was widowed) and it’s all fallen in to place.
Neither of us had previous spouses that were the LEAST bit interested in a quiet, self-sufficient lifestyle. It will be easier with two, yoked and pulling in the SAME direction!
We’ll see how it goes. I’m not seeing any down side at this point in time, though the first time the cows get out and run far, far away, I’ll let you know how I feel then, LOL!
