Relative Something

In the last couple of months, since we have moved into the log home on our new property, I have told, and retold, tales of our finding, and ultimately purchasing this place. We have entertained guests. I have figured out how to use the tractor to plow the driveway. We have introduced ourselves to our neighbors. Still, it is yet to feel like this is truly our home.

We dove right in and started pulling out old fencing a couple of weeks ago, but, with the arrival of the holiday week, work on that project has been on hold. The pause has given us a chance to just be with the place. It is humbling.

There are many things we plan to do, most important of which, will be to add horses to our family, but for now, we are doing our best to gain a sense of belonging in this space, just the way it is.

I can think of a lot harder things I’ve had to do in my life.
