Here's how it all started...many years ago. In this episode, we share our country living story, along with many lessons we learned in the School of Hard Knocks. I grew up down South in a gated community with almost 2,000 homes in it. Now we live in the North on a remote mountain wilderness homestead in Idaho. How'd that happen? Find out on this episode. Plus, you'll gain valuable tips we learned at great expense.
