I am a 53 year old retired nurse. I'm married and have 4 sons. I live on a family farm. I have pigs and chickens, my husband and his brother raise beef cattle. I garden and preserve food. I do have a butterfly garden and perrenials around the house. I love to read mysteries and historical fiction. I crochet and sew. I have two cats and two dogs. I have not travelled outside of the U.S. and have only visited a few states. I enjoy watching history and travel programs. I have many other interests that I can't elaborate on here but hope to share with a penpal.
