Much Brotherly Love

Back to our wonderful homeland. It was Wintertime 2009 not so long ago. We left Walden and traveled through Montpelier (so Amy could get one more day of babysitting in) and headed southbound with a full car and a full tank of veggie oil. The plan was to make it back in time for Robert’s annual Grinch Party, and we did just that (sans a sleepy Amy). This is also where I begin my unintended journey to gain an upwards of 10 lbs…

Cha Cha Cha Changes!

Just like the leaves and the seasons here in the Northeast Kingdom are transforming, the farm itself is undergoing a few changes of its own. Our new friends are preparing to leave on a cross-country expedition of their own. Just like us, they have decided to travel powered by grease, and their moving craft is a great big yellow, now also blue and purple, school bus. The bus has just been recently converted and is still undergoing some renovations to make it a comfortable home for all 4 of them (plus a dog). We are excited for them to have many great adventures as we did on our trip.

Asheville

After moving south from the hills of Hillsville and the festivities of Merlefest, we left a trail of hats behind us and headed to Asheville. We were to spend the next 4 nights couch surfing. Our friend Mark, who we met through our friend Jeff, set us up to stay with his friend Rob in Asheville. Friends of friends, we are loving how these things work out, to see how people can be so kind, sharing their home, providing a bed, a couch, a shower, a meal, and so on. Mark, an incredible artist, informed us that Rob is also an artist.
