Posted in My Thoughts

If you love the simpler life where stores, farms, orchards and home are all in the same area and where you can have a chicken coop or small garden next to your workshop/home you need to check out Simpler Times Village. I looked over the site and my heart is just longing to be there. There's a message board where all the hopeful neighbors of this place can chat and it's been wonderful hearing their stories and dreams. The people who have thought up the village encourage everyone to dream which is something I haven't had said to me in a loooooong time. They live near us so I'm trying to help them as much as I can. Even if I can't live there, I'll try to help others live there and be involved with making this dream a reality as much as I can! The founding couple is so sweet too! Sigh, so I thought I'd write that in here since most of you at Homestead Blogger can appreciate their dream. I'm praying we can move to Simpler Times Village. The place will be near Anderson, Indiana and we live near there so I can at least visit every now and again even if my dream never comes true.
