I Love Teddies Mar 15, 2006

I figured running a farm takes a lot of work, but I didnt' know what was involved.  I didn't realize how complicated it would be to photograph cows. 

Do you miss the city or do you love the farm so much you don't care? 

I showed DH the pictures and he was ready to come and visit.  He thought it looked great.  He said he would help with the cows.   

Chrissie, I too, never knew how much work was involved with farming.  There are no days off for Mark.  Since my sister's, nephew's, and brother-in-laws unexpected passing, my family has come to realize just how important it is to stay connected.  So we now try to get away once a year for a few days to meet up with my suriving sister brother, thier families, and my dad and step mom at some location in the USA.   Leaving the farm can be risky.  We have a good crew but only ONE guy who we can leave to be incharge of overseeing everything.  We also stay in daily contact via cell phone.

I love the country so much...the view, the fresh air, the smell of the crops breaking ground inspring.  I find peace, insiration, and so much beauty here.  I don't think I could ever again live in the city after being on the farm.....  AND...we are only 20 minutes from the nearest shopping mall!!!

I'm so sorry to hear about 3 of your family members passing away.   :hug:    I'm glad you take time to see your surviving family members. 

Being close to a shopping mall is very important!
