This journal is for interested people (family, friends, wanderers through) who want to follow my small homesteading project from the very beginning. I haven't grown up in a rural/country/farming-type life so this is very new to me. If you or someone you know is thinking about "living the cliche" (or, in my area, living on the caliche) as it were, feel free to follow along. I'll try to keep things mostly informational and upbeat but I'll also try to make sure to keep things pretty well based in reality (ever clean dried droppings off a chick's rear?).
