Soap Gypsy

Re: Rolling on

Thanks Lindy.
It will happen one day. I am determined. At the moment I am having to resort to wheel chair more often so I dream and plan. But you can betcha it is only a stage so I keep on day dreaming up my gypsy adventue and in real life slowly extending tracks around my place for my Clydesdale Horse when I get her / him.
A neighbour suggested to me the other day I wouldn't be able to handle a ClydesDale . I bet I will be able to. When the time is right.It is just a matter of planning . Maybe I could put a roof rack on the wagon so a rider horse handler would have somewhere to sleep. :wink: :wink: :wink:

Rock on Starduster!!! Pftewy to the neighbor who said you couldn't handle that horse.

I just found this link and I am right there with you. I love the idea of gypsy life selling soap and I have always wanted my own farm.....Taking in any animal that needed a home and lots of love and nurturing the living off the earth.

My brain is on go slow this morning and when I read your comment for some reason seeing your web site link below I thought that must have had some further Gypsy info. Der Me !
Never mind. I got to see you excellent clear site and great soaps. How long have you been soaping?
The thing is I decided that the name of your site In Natures Thyme was a little hint to me.A Thymley reminder perchance that everything does happen ,
'All in good Thyme'
Thanks

I'm sooooooooooo glad you got to go to that show!! You rock!!! You're one step closer to your dream!! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!

I'm still collecting pics of vardos, just in case I can figure out a way to get DH to build one.

Congratulations to you also for taking that step to go to the Ren Fair. what will you wear?

Then you should come live here in Brooke Valley, starduster. There are bunches of people here, living your dream, or some version of it.

There's: Marg and Tony with their goats, chickens and organic farm; Susie the potter making huge art installations across from her organic farm, with artist friends of hers; an Eco-Perth couple, looking to convince many people to eat slow-foods, grown locally; a yoga teacher who is so excellent her classes are always full; 3 potters, a printmaker whose wife sells the most beautiful flowers at the Farmers' Market in Perth; Diane the soaplady (that's me); Rosy from England keeps on surprising people with her creative talent, and her 3 outstanding outhouses, decorated to look like royal throne-houses. Steve the goat farmer has a new lama who is always out there protecting the herd; he is now dating my next-door neighbour, an acupuncturist who cures my migraines......need I go on?

People are aching to move into this community, finding little plots of land, or convincing those who own larger parcels to sell them a piece. Susan, a massage therapist from B.C. who just moved to Perth and bought herself one of those mini Tumbleweed homes on wheels, http://www.tumbleweedhouses.com will be moving onto Dawn's property for the summer. Dawn makes artistic rustic furniture.

Sounds like you'd fit in here just perfectly.
