Hi Rebecca,
I just joined this permaculture site today and liked your profile. I'm a recently retired engineer and I have been married and divorced twice, I now live in Lake Villa, IL, near the Wisconsin border but I am planning to move to my 18 acre property in northern Kentuck sometime in 2013 where I am planning a natural lifestyle with gardens, orchards, pond building, heating with firewood, exploring permaculture, etc. I am seeking a female companion who might share these interests instead of going to the Mall.
Finding a lady who might be interested in doing those kinds of things is difficult and I stopped drinking 35 years ago so the bar scene is of no interest to me. The Ford 8N is in that new barn in Kentucky right now waiting for the spring of 2013.
Your post is over a year old so things might be completely different now, I can tell you more if you are still interested.
