We were in a similar situation just two years ago, and it still seems surreal to have the land we do, albeit only a couple acres. Sometimes I think it's a bit of hope, a bit of luck, a bit of hard work, and a bit of "ask and you shall receive"! I wish very much that you're able to live your dream.<br />-JaimeNgo Family Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15484243776589015749noreply@blogger.com
