Hello Kelley. I'm Jack. I live in Nebraska. I recently retired. When I was about 8 years old, my father retired from Jet Propulsion Labs in Pasadena, CA in 1968 and packed us up to move to a small acreage on Lake Superior outside Marquette, Michigan. We never made it. Instead, as we traveled north, he found 120 acres of dense woodland in Northern Minnesota and we ended up homesteading there. I've put many miles and a lifetime of living between that homestead and where I am today, but my whole heart is dedicated to creating that life again. I am about to embark on a road trip to visit potential homestead properties around the country and I have a lifetime of practical skills and more recently study of modern homesteading practices. I'm divorced since 2008. I've dated, of course, both younger women and women my age, but no one a good candidate for my purposes. Either they are too tied to a metropolitan or suburban lifestyle or have no physical energy to pursue a life on a homestead. If you'd care too talk, it would be quite welcome. This is a rather black and white description of who I am and what I'm about. I can provide a great deal more color if you have the inclination! You're welcome to message me at
mareval@yahoo.com and we could go from there.
