Lucky me!

I had the great fortune to meet ASAH'er, northernlights, a week ago in Maine. A beautiful soul who graciously came to visit and
gave us wonderful advice for moving Downeast.

We were hoping that the outcome in divorce court would be different, however this was not to be the case. Everything must
be sold and split 50/50. This means we must leave our little farm in progress here on Cape. But it doesn't mean our dream
won't become reality. Pure Joy farm can be anywhere, and that's looking like the Lincolnville, Maine area.

In the meantime we will continue to spend time in our yurt on the farm, and yesterday we planted carrots, broccoli, cauliflower,
beats, arugala, spinach, and more into the 4 season greenhouse. Real estate isn't moving very fast, and we have decided
to keep on living as much a normal life as possible. Which was a bit sad yesterday after the meetup of the organizers, and volunteers in the community
that came to celebrate the success of Truro's first Agricultural Fair. A fabulous bounty of freshly harvested pot luck originals while planning next years
fair. We will probably still be here, but we may not. Melancholy limbo could be dangerous, so need to work at staying grounded.

Thank you NL for being so kind!
Peace IN.

1. There is sadness and

there is hope. The scenery is ever changing, ever-shifting.

A marriage, a christening,
a funeral. a wake.
Such as life is made of
Such of life we make.

2. To every thing

Turn, turn, turn.

There is a season

Turn, turn, turn.

A time for every purpose under heaven.

3. and thank you, PVD, for the lovely dinner

and all the veggies from your garden!

I was a pleasure to meet you and John, and fill you in on life up here in the arctic wasteland :D Just the other night, I let my pups out for their late night pee-pee and we heard a strange dog barking deep in the woods. Jake started to run in his direction and then the howling and yipping started. Yup -- a pack of coy dogs trying to lure in the local pets... :scared: The moose trail by my house has been busy lately too, mostly I think with deer although I did hear a moose one night not too long ago :D

Consider Belfast too -- although a bit further north it's another lovely and very liberal village. :hug:

4. It can be difficult, balancing between two worlds

You are right in planting things now; honor the earth and be thankful to her for what she gives. Live from day to day, and take little steps, being appreciative of each one.
