Tiger, Deerest.

I cant wait for my life with Chris. Lately we have been talking about what it will be like when I graduate and where we will go. so far we have Chile, Ghana, and Iceland on our list of places to go (other than all over Europe). we will have big dogs and live in the country. we have already been promised 2 horses! and we have gotten pretty good at taking care of chickens. After visiting Ghana I have decided I need pigmi goats! they are the cutest! and they eat anything. What I am most excited about though is our home! it will most likely be a yurt. Which will make living much more affordable! we will have more money for things like land, solar/ wind power, animals (horses can be expencive) and studios for us both!

I just read this story today about people who bought their land and it was mostly forest, then they cleared an area large enough for their home and they built their home out of that wood! how perfect! they brought ina portable lumber mill and cut all the wood right there on location. which is a great idea because Its much cheaper to haul  machinery than a whole forest!

I just cant wait to live off the grid. it will take a few years but when it happens it will be great. say we go solar, we could use solar power to charge our cars! and then never pay for gas either!  I am thankful to live in the time period I do. I dont always feel that way.
