We do a fair amount of shooting out in the back pasture. We often host Monday- Gun day and have friends over to practice target shooting.
I was raised in Los Angeles and my husband was raised in Houston proper. We came to country life one piece at a time with a small suburban homestead and now the farm. I love this life and most days stand on my front porch and survey how the Lord has blessed and still can not believe that this is MY life!
Randy, why do you say you would not go back, if you don't mind sharing? My youngest (of five sons) says he would like to spend a few years in a highrise in NYC. My oldest son has a PhD in international business and travels a lot. The other boys have good educations too but love simple life... maybe not as simple as us (we live in a 1931 farmhouse with a big stove for heat) but not too crazy busy.
I really enjoy milking the cows and goats and making cheese, butter, ice cream. I have several families that get food here, all sweet Christian folk. One a medical doctor and one a janitor at the local school... a nice mix. My wonderful husband will retire on to this place in the next few years and I will work off farm forever I think as I love my job in a medical clinic.
We have a website for the farm if anyone would be interested in seeing it
