I can't believe it took me so long to find this forum. I'm in trouble now I can see hours of reading ahead of me!
I currently live in Gainesville, TX but last year my family bought a little piece of paradise in Bailey, CO and we and the menagerie will be moving there at the end of April. I can hardly wait.
Simple living has always appealed to me but only last year did I really get bit by the homesteading bug. Our farm is home to many horses (hubby trains horses and is a farrier), a posse of Australian Shepherds who led me to the acquisition of a small flock of Painted Desert Sheep and a couple of ducks. I enjoy gardening but have never mastered gardening in Texas, either the heat or bugs wipe out most of my garden each year.
Life in Colorado will bring new challenges as Bailey is at 9000'. We are lucky have a pond and stream on our new property and border thousands of acres of National Forest.
