25 years #911 #nyc. What a wild and horrific view this once was. The sound it must have made. The shadows they once cast, and proverbially still do. by @newton.se

For those who've followed my farm adventures, this is a lil highlight. 3 farms!
It's been a heart felt and comedic experience of true Americana. To experience other lives. To test my resolve. To love what others love.
All jokes aside, I'm so grateful to have been trusted to care for these quite amazing places.
I'm excited to have my own piece of paradise one day. 🤠🐖🐐🐴🐓🐄🤠 #ilovehorses❤️🐴 by @newton.se
