Decisions, decisions.....

Over the last few weeks, we have made some difficult decisions involving our farm and our lives.  We have decided to sell the farm and hit the road.  We have realized that we work too hard to sustain our lifestyle and we are sacrificing our family time in order to do what we do.  We have always talked about traveling and figured why wait?  Why wait until we're 65+ years old when we can do it now?

We have already started selling some of our "stuff"... of which we have a LOT of.  We are constantly looking at our options and realizing that we have more available to us when we think outside the box....freeing ourselves from the societal "norms" that define what we're supposed to be doing.  Our dream has always been to return to Alaska and now this dream could become a reality... just with a slight road trip on our way there. :)

What does this mean for this blog?  I plan to keep writing (I have to maintain my sanity somehow - haha!), but the focus will be more on our travels and our family and of home-schooling.  Over the next few months, I'll try to keep it updated but cannot promise anything.  There's a lot going on here - selling of animals and belongings - so I'll do the best I can.
