Looks like you have flat land as far as the eye can see. That's something that would take me a while to get used to.Janet,https://www.blogger.com/profile/17796999156668844943noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1755931701182556976.post-71963076869704406492008-10-16T23:52:00.000-07:002008-10-16T23:52:00.000-07:00I mirror your feelings, Kathleen.

I moved from the city 5 years ago and I still walk outdoors and look around in amazement that I have been blessed to live in the country. <BR/><BR/>A drive to town leaves is a country ride. Waking up in the morning to the sound of a clucking hen below my window as she lays her egg ... and our breakfast! Sometimes I wonder if I'm simply dreaming.<BR/><BR/>I am blessed indeed!<BR/>LeaFarmhouse Blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08968135627250013084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1755931701182556976.post-22517741427996361122008-10-16T18:11:00.000-07:002008-10-16T18:11:00.000-07:00Lucky and blessed you!

There is nothing so wonderful as waking to the geese honking over the top of the house, or the mother cows "encouraging" their calves to hurry up and follow them. I am not sure how I came to be so blessed...but I am ever thankful!Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485422535638850892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1755931701182556976.post-64197390855548063722008-10-12T16:39:00.000-07:002008-10-12T16:39:00.000-07:00I agree...

I realize that it's all worth it when I come home to country noises only and see stars at night. Well said Kathleen!Jen's Farmilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16066311009933923372noreply@blogger.com
