Casey says all she ever wanted to be was a farmer, but she had to wait 60+ years for her dream to come true. And now it has. No one could be happier than Casey when she's up on her red tractor mowing the meadow or the area around her truck garden. She and Jeanne made me feel so at home and did everything they could to make sure my visit with our beloved friend, Mary White, went well. While it was Mary's fragile health that got me up North, staying with Casey and Jeanne was pure gift. We laughed, talked, shared silence, ate delicious homecooked local food, feasted our eyes on the beauties of Michigan's Leelanau Peninsula, and even managed to see Michael Moore's "Sicko," which is a heck of a terrific film. Oh yes, I'll be back.
