Roof is gone. Torn off, halfway replaced, and thankfully the sun is shining and we don't seem to be having thunderstorms this afternoon. Should go hang up laundry.

Moved again, this time to the dream land above Pecos on Hwy 63 in the wilderness of New Mexico. Always I wished to live right by the river, and this is the ultimate river. Introduce me again to the alders, aspens, cedars & pines, oaks & willows. Whisper soft or hum & rattle, there are birds and snakes and many trout. I am learning to breathe again and am so happy to live away, way away. This, then, is homesteading, in a modern world. Bountiful and plentiful, and I pray for everyone who wants to find someplace they can be.
