Sara and Rosa in Tennessee
Last weekend, Sara and Rosa went to Summertown, Tennessee to see Sara's (94 year old) Aunt Edith. Edith's son Martin was one of the founders of the Farm commune in Summertown, and Edith moved down there to be closer to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren (Martin now lives in Nashville).
Here's Sara's report: Martin's son, Silas who is a builder, built a gorgeous house for Edith next door to him and his family, and they're taking impressive care of her, along with Bonnie, Martin's ex-wife. They live about 5 miles away from the Farm. Silas took us on a tour of the Farm. It's HUGE. The photo of me and Rosa is in front of the Farm Store. The bus/house combo is NOT where Edith lives - it's one of the houses still on the commune.
And of course Edith sends her love to everyone. She's very happy in her new home and remembers the Kesslers fondly. She says this is the best move she ever made.

how do i post to this blog?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Just two comments: 1. where is the picture of the meeting room/flamingo room that is next to the bus/house? 2. Word to the wise, to those of you who intended to stop in Cincinnatti on the way to the Farm and go to the 21st birthday bash. In response to this reporter's questioning, the greater Cincinnatti Tourist and Visitors Bureau stated that, due to the overwhelming response to Oren's invitations, hotel vacancy for the weekend of April 22nd is currently at 7% and dwindling at a pace never before seen. Furthermore, there has been a rush on the availability of Fraternity house couches. Book your reservations soon!
"Book" your reservations, hah that's a killer.
So, I said, "Doodles, is my hair getting thin?'
And he said "Who wants fat hair?"
