I'm kind of obsessed with being American and I'm extremely enchanted with the idea of having a good ol' American farm someday (during or after my years as an educator) actually--probably more of a hobby farm but a farm nonetheless. Let me tell you what's going to be on this farm of mine:
- 2 cows
- 4 goats
- 8 or 10 chickens
- A rooster or two
- 3 pigs
- 2 horses
- cat
- dog
- probably a homeless guy living in my barn that I'll have no idea about.
- maybe sheep
- vegetables
- herbs
- fruit
- A ghost
Anyway, I'm pretty excited and honestly I think about it quite a bit. This summer I'm spending a week on a farm in Maine and I hope to pick up a few tricks of the trade. Oh but here's the thing, I won't let myself go...you know, as in unnecessary weight gain and not doing my hair. I intend to look ridiculously good and run a farm, it can be done--just thought I'd throw that out there.
p.s. the book above is great if you like America, photography, people, and animals.
