What a fun book. I laughed for a week just reliving in my mind some of the experiences Mr. Rouse went through trying to adjust to country living. He and his partner were so out of their element and unprepared for moving to their little well selected private wooded area out of reach of a Guchi and Starbuck's. They were looking for a calmer easier life. Little did they know.
This story is far from boring, full of "what the heck could possibly happen next to this poor guy", and just plain laugh out loud funny. I loved it.
