Living in Cochranville, Pennsylvania has definitely been a relaxing change of pace. I'm truly glad James and I decided on renting a house rather than an apartment, though truthfully there were no apartments to be had in Cochranville, population 5000.

Oh, body is tired. Another good day at the farm. Cleaned and organized tack and the barn, fed the goats and horses and helped more with the garden. Tomorrow I have to go pick up my new table (Craigslist deal!) and then run some errands for Ruth and then get to the farm about 1PM to work probably until about 6 just to avoid driving back during rush ( Read more... )
