Gray Mountain Farm
You guys.
We are at the farm.
The beautiful lovely Virginia farm.
Where the mountains ensconce you and the framily embraces you and the mosquitoes bite you and the wireless signal evades you and the Internet still doesn’t trespass onto the property.
So I just can’t easily share the good life we are living on these gorgeous acres across the wires on this blog.
And that is alright.
Just picture us all tubing down a muddy river. Working on endless food prep in a continual prep-cook-serve-eat-clean cycle all the day long. Going on little hikes and gator rides. Feasting on different people’s specialty meals and desserts. Sharing long held, over used, family jokes. Making brand new memories. Cramming fourteen or more kids together at the table for every meal. Watching young and old and in between play and laugh and talk together.
Picture it all in slow motion and in sepia tone with a sweet blue grass song playing in the background and you’ll have it just about right.

Virginia still is for lovers: lovers of simplicity, of beauty, lovers of history. She is for those who love neighbors and neighborhoods, where friendships become family…. and where it is normal and good to wave at passing vehicles you meet on her winding back roads.

The waving does seem unique to Virginia.
When I wave to strangers in cars here the response is just not the same as on our good old Virginia backroads.
