Final Hours/ American Refugees


Today and tomorrow are our last days. Honestly we are giddy with delight. We are so excited to go get on with the life we've been yearning for for so long. That's the good news.
The not so good news is that as of right now there will be no more GreenGo Food, and we will be jobless, homeless people adrift for several weeks until we reach the farm.
Looking at the cold hard facts, we are in a way American Refugees. Things are very bare bones, but there are others in much worse shape than us.
In the classic Fable The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, the lesson is that when you follow your dreams, the Universe conspires to help you. The Universe has definitely conspired to help us with our Farm Dream...we're almost on our way.
Thank You to the folks who've stopped by our Sidewalk Sale and Fire Sale to buy stuff and help us with travel $$. Thank You to our Ballard community who has been so supportive.

You know, I knew thought I'd say this, but I guess I should be spending MORE time on the internet! I might have discovered you were leaving before it was too late to stop in one last time.

I'm depressed by the thought of your fresh/hearty/spectacular polenta combo never again being there when I need it. But I'm glad you're following your bliss and hope the farm experience is everything you need it to be and more!
