Hi Merry. Welcome to the group. I am sure you will not only learn lots of new things but it sounds like there will be a lot of things you will be able to share with all of us.
Hugs~

Hi Merry! Welcome to the Farm! I am excited to learn more about you!
I have to say that from your initial post, you sound kinda like my mom...she is Mary from Iowa and likes to quilt, can, and garden. Too bad you don't live farther east or you two could be friends!

I love it here already! Everyone is so kind and encouraging. I had prayed to find a group of friends, prayer answered!

Every summer in Iowa, they have a 500 mile bikeride called RAGBRAI (Registers Great Bike Ride Across Iowa). My husband and I rode it in 2001. That is when we fell in love with Iowa. We had moved to Iowa in Feb of 2000, well, coming from Southern California, we thought it was not very attractive. But after riding the rural highways and backroads, we fell in love. My husband decided to retire from the Marines after this duty assignment and now he is a firefighter and I am closer to living the life of my dreams than I have every been.
