Bedlam Farm

Bedlam Farm

Bedlam Farm has been on the market for nearly 11 months and has not yet sold. I think of the farm every day, I lived there for nearly 10 intense, creative, and eventful years. I know it will sell to someone who loves it, and we still care for it. There is a caretaker watching out for it and we still have some things there. It is odd being there, as I don’t live there any more. My life is where Maria, the dogs, my work and camera is, and they are all at our new home.

Life is a lesson that never stops. A year ago, I did not imagine that this beautiful farm would not sell quickly and this an important lesson because it reminds me that even though so many people are absolutely certain about things – just check out any Facebook Page or watch the news – I am not certain about things, and life does not exist to meet our expectations. One day I will be happy to tell you that this farm is in the hands of someone who loves it as much as we do. Call that a plan if you like. This farm has had many lovers in its long life, and more are on the way. I like to mention it from time to time, it deserves that.
