I invite you to take a whimsical romp with me through fields and ditches, into barns and on tractor rides to rediscover the wholesomeness that emanates from being connected to the land. My adventures on the farm may break loose some of your own childhood wisdom. A wisdom that is often masked as we move into the adult world.Yet that youthful knowing abides in us. All we have to do is allow our senses to experience the world as a child does. Step barefoot into a puddle. Eat a piece of grass. Imagine a stick to be a magic wand. Make a wish upon a four-leaf clover.Come with me. Rekindle your child-like delight in life. Enrich your future with this sojourn in the past. And let your life be buoyed by the treasures you can find in rural simplicity.
