Living off the land

Well I’m happy to report that this week we made huge strides. For starters, we actually started paving the driveway! We now have a road to nowhere!! Hmmm….well, it’s a start anyway! We truly feel blessed right now because friends and neighbors pulled together their resources and together, we coordinated to have several area construction sites bring all their recycled asphalt over to our property…for free!! We had 18 truck loads delivered in just one of the many delivery days. What an incredible gift! Be sure to check out “The Road” for some updated pictures of our newly paved drive.

On a funny side note, our excavator was kind enough to take us around our land and show us what plants/weeds are edible! You just never know when you might need some vitamin packed greens. He was also kind enough to surprise Kris with breakfast one morning, cheese tacos with weeds, I mean, micro greens, from our own driveway! Ha ha! Kris said they were quite tasty. Guess we’ll tuck that recipe away just in case we run short on groceries!
