We were tired of our cramped, rat race existence in the big city, so we left our jobs, sold our 700 square foot condo and moved out west. We landed in the high desert of Eastern Washington, where apple orchards, potato farms, and wheat fields surround our rural town. We found a spot with a few acres of land, a house bigger than any we'd lived in before, with a garden ready to go, apples, peach, and walnut trees at hand.
Our dog, Indy, was excited to have some space to stretch his legs in. We weren't so sure about the amount of grass to mow.
We moved in in October - not the ideal time to start the country life, but enough time to start a few projects, harvest the last of the summers' produce and put our garden to sleep for the winter.
