What constitutes homesteading these days? I really don’t know. Is it growing your own food? Check. Hauling drinking water because your well isn’t hooked up yet? Check. Having a composting toilet because your septic isn’t approved yet? Check. Spending hours and hours clearing blackberries and poison oak? Check. Seeing a bear run across your driveway? Check. I’m living the dream up here. But after 10 months of very small rv living, house sitting and a disfuncional tiny house on wheels kitchen I have a silverware drawer! Hallelujah praise be the kitties! It’s the little things in life. Don’t get me wrong, I signed up for this and I would say I’m living my best life. Minus a few things like travel and a private chef. But I answer to no one. Except maybe a bobcat or bear and the county planning department. Also, and most importantly, I have a key to a private swimming hole in the river. Come swim with me! I probably miss you.
