They have three children to feed, and then Lonnie's Grandma moves in with them to save money. Despite their efforts, they lose their house. Jeff's parents are working overseas, but still own the family farm a couple states away from Pete and Lonnie. They pack up everything they can move in the two vehicles and move to the farm to start a new life.The farm has sat empty for years, and only Grandma knows much about things like gardening... and Grandma fades in and out of reality. However, in their new life at the farm, Grandma perks up and takes matters in hand! The children love living in the country, and even Pete and Lonnie feel a new peacefulness that had eluded them in their materialistic city life. Although this is not a lengthy hard-core survival story, it is a quality, family-friendly light-reading story of survival. Look for other books by this author, available on Amazon.
