Yeah, it's been a lonely road the past 4 years. COVID winnowed out the wheat from the chaff, and there is little in the wheat pile. Ostracized at my university (I'm a professor), my friends too afraid to venture out and live, I've become more introverted than ever. My kids and my sister are all on the same page, so I have that, at least. But a year ago I made a conscious decision to flee Baltimore City for a few acres in WV. It's hard as heck tending the land, building a garden, raising chickens for the first time but I'm learning. Here, I'm surrounded with like-minded folks, including farmers and hunters and those who don't like government's overreach. I'm exhausted but feel blessed. Peace...
