All-seasons acreage

So inspired by their move to the country, Dean and Sari are working on a book about their rural experiences titled, Lessons From the Farm. How Living in the Country Taught a City Couple the Simple Truths of Life. Four sections, based on the four seasons, contain chapters of lessons learned and reflections on what nature can teach about the meaning of life with humor and sensitivity.

The Soldens believe if you are open, flexible, and not afraid of hard work or change, a move from city life to country life can be exhilarating and rewarding. Smell the rain on the meadow; listen to the soft baas of sheep as they settle down to sleep and to the cricket chorus rising with the deep blue cloak of night.

Now that's living.
