Haha! (When I was just a little girl, we went on a mission trip to Arizona and we camped overnight in Kansas. We were in a pop out camper and the winds and storms that went through almost sent us to find Dorothy and her Wizard!)Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507427205366570463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108917021368405521.post-7444464375280441572009-10-06T20:16:35.652-07:002009-10-06T20:16:35.652-07:00Oh, what fun!

I love the simplicity and separation of their lifestyle, not to mention the beautiful country living! I would love to one day live in the country, too, but the Lord is Good and I have learned, as Paul said,"...in whatsoever STATE I am,<br />therewith to be content." (Philippians 4:11)<br /><br />Thank you for visiting me.<br />Your kind words were a blessing.<br />~ ChristinaHsKubeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12573406924326142245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6108917021368405521.post-4329956260183554602009-10-06T17:05:18.494-07:002009-10-06T17:05:18.494-07:00Oh Beth, how I would to visit Amish country.

If we ever make a trip to the States I would be heading to all those beautiful rural areas- forget California, though my children would insist on visiting Disneyland! Most tourists who come to Australia only travel the coast but some of the most beautiful places are inland - in the hinterland as we call it, with stunning rain forests and waterfalls and sweet country towns - I'm blessed to live in such an area but we are only ten minutes to the coast too - I feel doubly blessed.<br />Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving a comment. I so appreciate meeting others who homeschool and cherish their family life. When my local homeschool support group folded a few years ago I was so disappointed but starting a blog has helped me reconnect with people and find friendship and support. For me too, most of the loveliest people I have met live in other countries or in other states of Australia. I do hope to travel one day with my family and meet the friends I have made - my itinerary is growing!Ann at eightacresofedenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15524581927752695509noreply@blogger.com
