Friday Afternoon Movie: The Real Dirt on Farmer John

Friday afternoon movie while the rains moved through the area: from Netflix - The Real Dirt on Farmer John. Another good one. Diane and I were deeply touched by this documentary of a man who was born on the land, inherited the land, worked the land, lost the land, then returned to the land and made it better with the help of a community of people wanting to have some connection to a land that for them remained something way outside the city limits of Chicago. I think part of the reason we were so deeply touched was that we got a peek at one of our parallel lives (as defined by Richard Bach in his book One). It was/is a honey.
