More About Me

I'm transplanted Brit who's lived in the US for thirty odd years. I recently bought a nice plot of acreage with a charming house and barn and plan to keep bees next year. In the meantime, as I'm confined to quarters and apart from working from home on an old laptop, I'm keeping lots of species of birds fed, enjoying the raucous frogs playing the dating game in the pond, writing tall tales, and sipping the odd pint of old peculiar my dealt beloved has brewed.
