hello~ hmm... a blog- never thought i'd do this, but i think this is a good way for us to document our new adventure and hopefully get feedback about any crazy issue that arises in relation to living in the woods. right now we are finishing up grad school- we moved from wnc to north east ohio (!?) when aspen was 8 months old- and will be moving back when she is 3 1/2. lots has changed, but our desire to be on land, in trees, and living peacefully has not- i believe it has only become more of a destination we seek after the dramatic lifestyle change of going back to school and starting a family. so to add to the adventure we are hoping to life as sustainably as possible and in a yurt.
