Loved this post. 3 years ago we bought 5 run down acres and have been trying to knock them into shape ever since. Hubs is building me a greenhouse out of pallet racks & old windows (yeah-he’s THAT awesome!), also putting in compost bin & 1/2 acre fish pond! After that, raised bed garden. Already keep bees, so have lots of helping hands! God bless your garden, and thanks for the inspiration!

Hi there fellow Deanna!

This morning I was just looking up how I could safely move a monarch cocoon from a not-very-safe location and came across your post. Not only did it help me but then I saw on the sidebar that you are also a Deanna, which is pretty rare. Then I see here in this About Page how you lived in Providence, RI for a bit, which is where I live now!

Anyways, just a lot of similaries which is currently blowing my mind. So I thought I would say hi. Hope you’re doing well over in California!

Hi,
I noticed you’re in Pismo Beach! I grew up in Santa Maria, love Pismo. Turning 60 next year, living in Northern Ca, kinda fell into homesteading. Spent three years hating not being normal…LOL, and am just now getting into canning and preserving. Feel like a sponge, just can’t learn enough, fast enough. Don’t know how to make a future out of it, but Im just starting to make things. Going to try your Bath Salts, Sourdough Pumpkin and Lip Balm. I wish you all the best! I’m a home body too, wish I would have learned all this at your age. Well, good luck and I’ll follow your progress. Maybe I’ll find the perfect spot too.

Sincerely,
Mar Linda
p.s. I love kittens, got one down on the farm.
