I recently posted two blogs on how to make agarita jelly... Oh...you missed them??? Guess you're not using agarita jelly recipes to close that deal this week...eh? In any event...they actually got some great responses including folks from "outside" the Active Rain community. (Yes...it actuall...

If you sit at work dreaming and thinking there's gotta me more than concrete sidewalks and this face paced life...then maybe it's time you find yourself again and start living the simplicity of the "rural lifestyle". It doesn't mean you have to give up your job...just give up living 10 feet away from your neighbor or starting your own garden or have that horse you've always dreamed of.
I have been a licensed Realtor for nearly 18 years with experience in new home construction, (both production and custom), log homes, and helping folks live the rural lifestyle. It would be my extreme pleasure to help you realize your dream.
