I'm writing this blog post from the livingroom of a friend's house as we house sit for the next 4 days. I used a toilet this morning and thought, "I will never grow tired of peeing in the woods".
The Tiniest Farmer
Comment2018 on the farm is possibly more rewarding than last year! Now that we have a grip on what the heck we're doing, I find myself looking forward to my weekly farm shift all week.
This is the farm owner's daughter. She may be the tiniest farmer I've ever seen.
I brought my sister to my latest farm shift and made a video of our working day. She had an absolute blast! Don't miss it!
Our Friends Try Cold Water Exposure
CommentBarron has really taken a liking to cold water exposure, so much so that he has encouraged nearly each one of our visiting friends to take on the challenge themselves. The goal is not to stay under the longest, but to sit in the cold, snow melt water until you can maintain normal breathing despite the cold. Then, sit as long as possible. The Chia Babe holds the record of one minute, ten seconds!

Barron's Family Came to Town
CommentIt's always a blast when Barron's family comes to visit. They're continuously supportive of our lifestyle choices, so much so that they'll even participate!
In February they made the 2 day drive in a rental car from Kansas City to western Arizona. They came bearing FOOD IN ENDLESS SUPPLY and at the end of the day, blew up an air-mattress, stuck it in the back of the rental and car camped!
Over Memorial Day Weekend they came and car camped again with us in Colorado, bringing along Barron's younger brother!
We made new adventure friends (human and dog) over the weekend. Mike, Esther and their dog, Bruce, joined the party.

Colorado feels good. It's the land of mountains, outdoor adventurers, public showers for said adventurers and a spirit unlike anywhere I've ever been. I am at home here in the Rockies.
