Tuesday Tunes: Meet Me in the Country
“Meet me in the country for a day.
We’ll be happy.
And we’ll dance.
Oh, we’re gonna dance our blues away…”

My name is Tonya, and I grew up on a 300-acre farm in rural Virginia that has been in my family for over 100 years. After graduating from college, receiving my master’s degree in speech and language pathology, and living and working in a small city for six years, I decided to return to the place of my childhood. Here, in this rural area, on this patch of green, where for four generations my family has farmed, gardened, and lived, I, too wanted to be a part of this continuity. As a fourth generation farmgirl, I have many interests that not only include, but also go beyond the basics of farming, gardening, sheep and chicken-keeping. It is all of this and more that I plan on sharing in this blog.
Beautiful pictures…it must be too much of hard work for you all but I think it’s worth the trouble. You are doing a noble work!

I love your sheep. ❤ For some reason I was reminded how much I laughed when I had to translate "sheep-turning crate" and had no idea what it could be and googled it and the first search result was a hilarious photo of a sheep midair in a contraption, obviously used for shearing. I saved the photo and still giggle every time I see it.
