Linda: Welcome. I am Linda, 60. A farm-girl who found herself in a small isolated town in a stunning location at the age of 40, an accidental treechange, after living 25 years in my beloved mill-town. So now I have lived 34 years of my life in the High Country. My husband of 39 years & I try to renovate our home. Our eldest sons, 36 and 33 are working in the city as is our middle and youngest daughter, while our other daughter also studies in a city environment.
