                Posted - Jun 01 2005 : 6:03:58 PM Hello everyone!  I am new to this forum and have never done a "forum" anyway!!  I live in Iowa and have FINALLY gotten my garden in today.  It has been windy out here on the plains...  I have 7 acres with my husband and daughter that we have had for 5years and we are still figuring out things.  Ahhh, extreme living at its best!  I look forward to trading ideas on organic gardening, raising small animals and the fun of being a farm girl --albeit in training!! yours truly, Kele

                Posted - Jun 02 2005 : 6:06:39 PM Wow, I leave my computers side for a day and I've made friends!!  I live between DeWitt -- my husband calls our property "DeWitts End"  ha ha -- and Grand Mound Iowa.  Not too far from C.R. on Hwy 30 if you have an hour to blow on driving.  I stuck some green bean seeds down in the ground after work today.  If I dont turn my cuticles brown at least every other day I am lost. Yeah, I love "Rent" the musical!  I have seen it twice and could probably sing/recite the entrie soundtrack as I used to listen to that repeatedly.  I just love the way it seems to pinpoint so many personalities of my generation. --something about yearning for a community of my own, but here with my camera, alone. Anyone enjoying fresh greens outta the garden?  Salmon Caesar Salad here I come... 
  Kele P.S.  I believe the proper term for someone from Iowa is "Iowegian" due to the oh-so balmy winters...

                Posted - Jun 02 2005 : 1:24:39 PM Hi, Where are you from in Iowa?  I grew up on a farm about 17 miles from Iowa City, close to Williamsburg.  I now live on an acreage between Iowa city and Cedar Rapids.  It is nice to hear from another Iowan.   Marlene |

                Posted - Jun 02 2005 : 06:11:46 AM I see that your tag line is "no day but today."  Are you a fan of the musical "Rent"?  That is my most favorite musical ever!
