Wonderful story

This story touched my heart deeply. I just loved it. I actually remember a TV program years ago about people moving into and building wonderful, unique homes and creating a community in the small dairy farms area mentioned in the book. Many lived on the dole and called it useful use of the benefit. The timing in the story matches real life in that respect.
