Moving Out Of Town

Guest post by Gerard Mcdaniel

A few years ago my husband and I decided to move out to a rural area. We were both raised in that fashion, and wanted our three children to have a simpler life. We also missed having a large property to roam. We wanted to get back into riding horses and growing some of our own food. We felt like our children were being swallowed up by big city.

We spent all of our free time shuttling them between school and extracurricular activities, and they knew absolutely nothing about the outdoors. They actually thought food came from a supermarket, and they had no idea about the process involved. We knew moving would be a major change for our family, but we also knew it was the right move.

 When we spoke to the kids about it, we told them we would try to keep most of the modern luxuries we had to get them on board. We had to get our internet service from get.wildblue.com, so that would be a little different. The only thing that would change is that they would have more free time, and be able to spend most of it in the great outdoors.
