Laurie's starting to get excited about her new barn.

[CousinIT]

9. I'm just barely familiar. I used to have friends who had farms..

....large pieces of land away from cities. No city noise, no city lights. I could hear the wind even when it was just gently blowing. In the city, it has to be howling to even hear it. And just fresh air ( unless ya went in the barn and even then it was hay, feed and the occasional poo and horsey farts!)

The idea of a farmhouse with a wraparound porch and porch swings, rocking chairs....much of it is my imagination and what I remember from my high school friends.
