Patrice Lewis: Leaving the City.

By Rich Kozlovich

Patrice Lewis has been a writer for years and lived on a farm, with her husband and daughters.  They were home schooled, and are now grown and doing well.  Patrice published articles for World Net Daily and has just published her first romance novel.  A Christian romance novel!

I've followed her blog, Rural Revolution on and off for some years.  I loved the pictures of their farm, the animals, the garden, fruit trees, and all the work she and her husband did to raise and preserve the food. She also publishes information about gardening and farming it, Back Woods Home Magazine. 

Below's a recent post I think many will find interesting, given the disasters our major metropolitan areas have become. You might wish to view the reader's comments!

Please enjoy!
