The Old Farm

I was driving along on a sunny fall afternoon enjoying the fall colors. Then I saw a sign that said “FOR SALE” on the lawn of this old house. I just drove into the driveway to investigate. That was the last time I had to think about being sick or worry about my last days. I haven’t had time to think about it since.

I found a little old lady at that farm house. She too was on her last leg. She was about to sell her farm which would be the end of the dreams she and her husband had shared. As I listened to her story, I couldn’t let that happen to her, and I started up a path that not only revived me but revitalized this old lady and together we finalized the dreams that she had secreted in her heart all those years.

In helping this old lady I met the most wonderful people in the world.

Then, this young boy decides he likes our life style and he moves in with us.

Then other children decided they wanted to experience our life style, but we didn’t have enough room for all of them. This community decided to build dorms to accommodate them.

The 4-H Club move out to the farm.

Then a young girl says to me, how come you got boys here and no girls? Well she too was determined and dedicated, and Abby moved out to the farm.
