Having finally finished moving in, and mostly finished the decorating, we took a little break this week to just be in our new home. We are incredibly lucky to have amazing neighbors, seriously amazing neighbors. Some who feed us what they have grown, some who have introduced us to the area and other great people and some, like Mike, who has gotten in his tractor and bush hogged 6 acres of our land for us. For free. For free. How lucky are we and what could we ever offer in return?

Here are the results of Mike’s hard work. Seriously people in Southern Illinois are the best!
