Agree with Growing Sideways. Your writing is moving and layered. Also I adore the photos. You could be telling a very different story with those pics, more of a Facebook, "isn't my life enviable" account. The honesty and vulnerability takes this in a different, more meaningful direction.
Love this so much! I appreciate your vulnerability about the difficulty of being an outsider, aka flatlander, an experience so many of us feel in different situations. This sentence especially got me: "I need to prove that I am decent and thoughtful, authentic and self-sufficient (the latter is especially important here in Vermont). I’m no Danielle Boone, but I’m also not Eva Gabor either..." Funny and honest and perceptive.
Good reading and wonderful pics, as always...Thanks for your honest and interesting sharing!
I loved the cows following Izzy.
Love,
Rozzie
