That’s the mode of transportation it feels like we’ve been on lately. We’ve had a nutty few weeks here at four chickens. My daughter got out of school last Wed. morning. That afternoon, my sister, her husband and my niece came to visit for a few days. They left on Monday morning, the same day my daughter started a nature day camp for the week. Now, I’m off to Idaho tomorrow for the Mary Jane’s Farm Fair and Farmgirl Campout.
Mary Jane Butters is this amazing woman who started an organic farm in Moscow, Idaho in the Palouse region (one of the most beautiful places I’ve seen). She then started an organic dried food mail order business. Then she started a great magazine which has no ads other than a catalog for her foods and assorted other items. She also runs an amazing bed and breakfast with wall tents and little cabins on her farm. And a U-pick organic veggies business. She’s kind of a Martha Stewart of farm culture. And every year she has a farm fair the weekend before the 4th of July. Last year I was invited as one of a few women to come to a Farmgirl Campout on her farm after the Fair. It was wonderful. I met some great women, had a wonderful time, slept in a wall tent (with an iron bed), and just enjoyed myself. And I’m doing it again this year. I can’t wait. I’m a farmgirl at heart.
So, there’s a bus that someone parks on the other side of the park we live next to. It’s an old school bus that someone uses as their mode of transportaion and they’ve scratched off the SCH and part of the L to make Oo!
