Eleanor's Story

Followed the "approved" route for a female in the 1950's - worked a couple of years, got married, had 3 kids & a house in the suburbs. Got a horse for the family - that led to more, till we were raising Morgans on 10 acres...then moved to the boonies of north Missouri to a small farm in 1976 and have lived here since - with a several year break to finish college as a nontraditional student & almost straight A's to graduate in 1989. Half-way through a Master's in Counseling, health problems for both Jim & me caused an abrupt change of plans. Now we're both over-the-hill oldsters, enjoying life in the country. Joined the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) & was Queen of Calontir in 1988-89 - Now Countess Zeno...Expand for more
bia of Rebelswood. What a fun alternate life! I miss the participation. Have canoed the Ozark streams, Missouri River, and others in Missouri - camped & hiked in Missouri & Colorado - raised, trained and showed Morgan horses - sold paintings in art fairs & now on eBay - had a small dairy - hunt & fish & forage for wild foods here - garden - have been almost completely self-sufficient in the past when we were younger & had more working hands here - grew our own milk, meat, eggs, veggies & fruit with cows, pigs, chickens, rabbits. Have homesteaded this small farm & built our self-designed house around us while we lived in it (with luck, we'll complete it before we die). In general, life has been interesting! LOL

Best explanation I've seen on the election process.
Knee surgery today. Out of recovery and back in my room. Everything went well but I'm very sore.
Here's a picture of Bo (the wonder dog), who is a lot smarter than he looks! I may sometimes call him "big oafish" - but he's humble & lovable.

Sibling day - I'm remembering my 5 siblings (I was the baby - 9 years after the youngest of them) - only my oldest sister Beverly Barnes-Johnson and I are left now. I hope this photo shows - if so, Bev is at the lower left,
