Far Niente

Offer accepted!
As of the end of July, John and I are set to be owners of a 40 acre farmstead south of Cedar Rapids on Club Road. After nearly three years of searching for the perfect farm, we think we've final found the one! Of the 40 acres only 17 are cropland with the remainder in pasture. Hoosier creek cuts almost diagonally through the property with timber on each side. The main attraction is the barn. Built in 1920 we have lots of plans to bring her back to her prime and make the farm our own. Pictures of the property will follow. For now we're celebrating with in Macedonia with the Forristall's with a bottle of 1987 Far Niente Cabernet Sauvignon graciously given by John's parents.
