There are times that the Lord will pull a few strings and you are marching down a path that is all new.

It is wonderful that you have found the right place for you, for so many do not know where their ‘right place’ is.

Yes, do keep us posted and know that you will be in our prayers, for it is a job setting up a place and there is far more involved than many know.

For me it has been so long, that I have forgotten much of what I learned.

Wonderful that you have found things here that are usable for you, that makes the efforts of all worth while.

Will you be able to plant a garden this year?

“Will you be able to plant a garden this year?”

We debated about that, but in the end decided to go ahead and plant one here, although sticking only with the basics. What can I say? I’m a “gardener”. :) So the potatoes are “in”, and I’ll plant some beans, corn, pumpkins, tomatoes, and marigolds, although not as much as I normally would. I still have quite a pantry full from last year, so we won’t starve either way, but I’m planting mostly heirloom seeds this year and am eager to see how they do.

I’m really looking forward to gardening “down home” as we’ll be moving from a zone 5 to a zone 6 and I’ll have a much longer and warmer growing season. I’ll also have to relearn how to garden in those conditions, but look forward to a great improvement in both yields and varities. :)
