After a long while dealing with home repairs and other miscellaneous things, I am coming back to post more frequently here.
This year, the plans are starting to come together for a little rural garden. Just a little starter, if you will. There is a nice sunny spot to the north of our house, about 40 feet by 12 feet just waiting to be tilled up. Didn't do it last year basically because we needed to have the house re-roofed and I had no idea where the dumpster and other roofing equipment was going.
Well, now that the house work is done, the potential garden area is all mine!
More later, I promise!

To Farm Again is Back!
OK, the world is going crazy.
I am changing this blog a little. Instead of little, sporadic posts about farming and agriculture and rural life, the focus is changing. The world is going a little crazy with technology and patents and general craziness. Here will be posted the typical articles about farming, agriculture and rural life, as well as commentary and news articles about why the world just might be better if we move a bit more toward an agrarian society.
Tired of technology? Don't take up underwater basket weaving! Move back to the country and farm!!!

About Me
Growing up on an old-school Illinois farm, I learned the power and beauty of simplicity and nature.
I attended Western Illinois University (WIU in the mid '80s, studying Computer Science.
Since the late '80s, after graduating college, I have lived away from nature, off the farm, in cities. For brief times I enjoyed the opportunity of living in small towns (Cresco, Iowa and Bement, Illinois) but these brief respites only served to remind me what was missing in my life. I miss nature. I miss simplicity. I miss the farming life.
