I waited until we had the solar up to finally write this post. We are finally living on the land we bought nearly 2 years ago. The journey has been (and certainly still is) a crazy one. We cut a road into the rear of our property in February, moved into temporary housing and moved over our chickens, rabbits and goats in the spring and just started working our backsides off.

We started, and are nearly finished with, a 12x14 ft shed with an attached 8x10 chicken coop, grew a 1000 sq ft garden, acquired a LOT more chickens, a pair of geese and a donkey to add to our little farm crew, delivered a pair of surprise baby goats (Molly and Chorley), watched our broody hatch out chicks, canned our own produce, set up our homemade water collection system, got a brand new address, bartered with friends... It has been, in many ways, the best summer of my life. It has been very difficult, fascinating, exhausting and completely wonderful.

AFTER (but still very very far from complete)
