live in a house with a wrap-a-round porch

This has been my dream since I was about 8 yrs old. So nice to see that other people share in this!

with a huge vegetable garden, a fruit orchard, and weeping willow trees, and goats and sheep and llamas and chickens, plenty of kitties, overalls, sunhats, sweet tea and biscuits, roadside produce stand… oh what a life it will be…

Yesterday the boy and I picked up his sister from a house with a wrap-around porch. It had a hammock. I said to him, “This, this is what I want—wrap around porches and big yards and hammocks.” Then I confessed I’m actually more of an apartment type person.

Still, the fantasy is nice. His sister came bounding down the stairs to the door, and we drove away to return to the real world.

drink mint juleps and wear a big ole straw hat.
