Welcome to my humble little site. This site started out as a way to keep my family informed via email. Soon I added a few friends in and started writing more and more until I figured I had better stop loading up peoples mailboxes and put up a website. I converted some of the last emails to HTML about the start of our dairy farming business but some details might be missing. I like questions and comments so feel free to email me at the address below.
If you stumbled on this site some other way, let me fill you in on the background. I am 31 years old with 2 kids and married to a lovely Dominican woman. We met in the United States and lived and worked there for 7 years before selling our house and moving back to her home town for a better life. We didnt just jump into this but planned, saved, and saved some more for years before we made this move. As a former computer programmer I have no experience with farming so I read every book I could get my hands on. I spent hundreds of hours reading information on the Dominican Republic, (see DR1.com) Of course we visited many times over the years as well.
Finally, the right time came to make the big move and we went ahead and did it. We already owned a home and a field when we made the big move. We packed all our junk in boxes, put it on a truck, and prayed we would see it again. Bought our tickets and flew the coop.
Please take a look through at my stories and tell me what you think of our adventures so far.

P.S. I hope you enjoy my spelling. Dont bother commenting on it, because I am too lazy to correct it.
