Wonderful smells everywhere—fresh mown hay, wildflowers, and apple blossoms. Interesting sounds—the rumble of distant thunder, an owl calling in the woods, a flock of Canada geese winging over in the fall.” In this paperback edition of a beloved Jerry Apps classic, the rural historian tells stories from his childhood days on a small central Wisconsin dairy farm in the 1930s and 1950s.

With recipes associated with each month and a new introduction exclusive to this 2nd edition, Living a Country Year celebrates the rhythms of rural life with warmth and humor.

Book Synopsis Country Wit and Wisdom by : Grace Ann Neuharth
Download or read book Country Wit and Wisdom written by Grace Ann Neuharth and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-09-05 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A country life surrounded with beauty was the perfect backdrop for me to learn a lot of life's lessons. It afforded times of stillness and calm without a lot of the distractions of city living. The lessons learned have been many. I have had to seek God in stillness of mind and heart. I praised Him often for His goodness and for all the beauty I see around me. I've talked a lot about predators and being safe and finding that place of safety. True safety can only be found when you are abiding under the shadow of the Almighty. I have also learned more about being dependent upon God. A lot of people in the country seek for self-reliance. It's all about what they can do and have with the work they do. Yet it is God who is in ultimate control of the winds and the rains, the times and seasons of life. These are lessons that can be learned anywhere you can shut the world off for a while and be still. You need a time of silence away from the noises of life that bombard your mind and soul. I pray that you enjoyed both the lighthearted look at the country life and the more serious lessons to be learned. God is speaking to you all the time in many different ways and situations if we only have ears to hear and eyes to see that lesson.
