Ardent Eden

Ardent Eden is a place to explore my thoughts about the interdependence of life - humanity and nature - and to engage with others for collective problem-solving.

Mission Accomplished

We bought a house this weekend! We flew down to PA on Friday evening and returned tonight having signed a purchase agreement for our first home. I'm exhausted from the travel and mental energy flow, but I'm also happy and excited about the lovely home and 1.8 acres. A nice bonus: the sellers are gardeners who are relocating and there's a three-year old asparagus bed, some raspberry, blueberry and currant bushes and some rhubarb growing. Our heads are spinning with the possibilities!

    Thanks for all the well wishes!

    Roger, you'll be pleased to know that I checked out that website even before you posted it. I guess I am slowly coming around to jumping ship on the Democrats! Believe me, I would LOVE to go solar in the future. Your guidance will most certainly be sought. :)
