Buying a farm in Floyd, VA

TomNJ · June 15, 2013

I traveled the world extensively when I was working and always thought Ireland was the most stunning country of all - until I saw Scotland! But now that I wake up each morning in the Blue Ridge Mountains, I'd actually rather stay home.

I guess I need a vacation though, just to let my sore muscles and wounds heal! With the exception of the initial plowing and disking, I worked this garden with a shovel, rake, and hand trowel. One of the unusual joys of being so rural is the ability to garden naked, while basking in the warm mountain sunshine. Talk about being one with nature, but it does leave one with some sunburn issues!
