And while my son was on his adventure of a lifetime, I embarked on an adventure of my own...I purchased a farm! I saw it for the first time in April , made an offer in May, and closed on the property June 26. It has an old farmhouse, built in 1875, that I am completely restoring, as well as 22.5 acres with several barns and a lake.
This is where I have been spending all of my time:) I have been taking lots of pictures of the progress and hope to organize and share those soon.
