My first post



My husband and I just bought a 1972 ranch home on 10 acres in Burns, Tennessee. The land is rolling to level pastures with an old barn and a spring fed pond on the property. The house looks like as if it has been "untouched" by the hands of time. The 1970's wood panaling throughout, linoleum flooring and flowered wallpaper look as though they were freshly installed... seriously! We plan on completely renovating our "flashback to the seventies" ranch home as well as making some useful improvements to the land. In the process, I will be learning everything there is to know about agriculture, farming, gardening and of course, remodeling. This blog will serve as a guide to anyone who is interested in turning an outdated house into a home they can call their own.... and also for those of you who believe that land can be purposed for something other than asphalt, concrete and more subdivisions.
