EMBRACE FAMILY & CHERISH MEMORIES!

One of my YouTube friends  recently sent  a great link on “off-grid” living : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqdvSshosAQ
After watching the series, I immediately took a trip down memory lane…. 

Looking back, my father was a natureman at heart and I was so blessed to have lived the simple life during my formative years.  Although my semi-wilderness upbringing was over 20 years ago, it is no surprise that I remain fascinated with life off-grid surrounded by nature. 

Thankfully, my husband is also a visionary and is highly interested in homesteading while leading a simple life.  After watching the Strouds off-grid experience, it inspired us to re-explore ways to be a bit less dependent on modern conveniences. 

Aside from being prompted to examine our current lifestyle, I certainly remain grateful for the wonderful childhood my parents provided in the great outdoors.

Join me down memory lane as I repost the video montage I shared once before about my life in the 70’s:

Star! What wonderful memories this brings back to me. I loved living in Anderson Springs and watching you, Kristan, Erin and Sarah grow up together. Do you know it hasn't snowed in Anderson Springs in many years?
Love you very much,
God Mother Claudja (thank you for my nick name!)

Dearest Star, Oh how I loved your "Down Memory Lane" and so many wonderful memories I have of all our California gatherings over the years. You brought me great joy and joyful tears while I watched the video. Thank you for sharing and as Granny B. would say "Bless Your Precious Little Heart".
