Inspired by a little-known picture book from the pen of Bethany Tudor, this is a diary, of sorts, where I document some of my thoughts, activities, and ideas as I explore the challenges met by the characters in the story: hard work, the care and nurture of others, housekeeping skills, life changes, charity, community, and cooperation, among others. Like Samuel and Samantha, the ducks in the tale, I struggle and succeed, cope and celebrate, work and play, handling the tasks that come my way. I invite you to join me on my journey.

A Great Place to Live --- South Dakota?

The Progressive Farmer, a magazine for people who are living (or who want to live) the good life in the country, has released their 2006 list of Best Places to Live in Rural America. To my surprise, Union County, South Dakota is in second place! For those of you who have never been to South Dakota, Union County is located in the southeast corner of the state, bordering Iowa. The county seat is Elk Point. The nearest large cities are Sioux Falls and Yankton, South Dakota and Sioux City, Iowa. Click here for some great photos of the area. Go South Dakota!
