i once was lost

Lost in the Ozarks again

I wanted to see a man about some wood. Actually I was hoping to see his sister, who has a beard, according to rumor. But no one was home, so I meandered around on dirt roads, up hill and down dale, looking for a 4,000-acre organic ranch. Didn't find. Got completely lost. Went in circles. Saw many streams. Finally came out on a road I recognized. In my wanders, I did see this wonderful ruin of a farmhouse.
