Everyone needs an Oasis

Everyone needs a place of refuge; a haven of rest...well I finally found mine. I previously posted a picture of where I am currently living - a beautiful farm-style home on a 26 acre piece of land. It's been a great 'transition spot', but I happened upon a great little find just down the road from it. It's a tiny little 3 bdrm house located on a 300 acre cattle ranch. It needs a bit of work, but the surrounding area is absolutely gorgeous! All that surrounds me is trees, hills, valleys, cows, an occasional coyote and fox, not to mention all the fun little creatures that come with 'woodsy' living. The cool thing is that I am only 5 min. from the grocery store and 10 min. from work! Since taking this picture, I've painted the living room, and my bedroom. I'm in the midst of waiting (I seem to be doing that a LOT lately) for furniture to arrive which I recently ordered, as well as waiting for my items in storage (from Texas) to arrive sometime in the next month (hopefully!). I've done a lot of weeding, cutting back trees, and putting in outdoor solar lighting. Still a lot more to do, but it's nice putting effort into a place I know I'm going to be for awhile. To the left of the house, you'll see a tiny little shed. Looks like the previous occupants used it for a schoolroom - it will be perfect for a craft room! I think I'll save that project for when my sister comes to visit :-) .... I have a guest room, so please come visit! Here's a view of part of my yard...
