They were brave women who raised families when they were so far from help or "civilization."<BR/>Our ranch was twenty miles from the nearest town in eastern Washington, but we had neighbors within a few miles -- and one just a 1/4 away at the end of the lane. I know I planned meals a lot more, bought groceries less often and kept the freezer full!<BR/>Enjoy your down time!<BR/>CharlotteCharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03835622877856582408noreply@blogger.com
