That Chicken Guy!
My name is Mikel, I'm in the middle of my 40's living a middle class life in Middle Tn. I have an amazing wife Hannah and 3 awesome children from the ages of 2 to 18.

With my background in Alcoholics Anonymous, and the concept of sharing your experience, strength and hope, my wife and I have decided to share our journey together as we seek out a simpler lifestyle in this new frontier of modern day living.

Being born in the 80’s, we remember a time growing up when there were no cell phones, no internet, no gps, etc… Now closing in our forties, with the world accelerating in technology that is meant to make our lives easier, yet it has somehow made them far more complicated, we have found ourselves longing for our younger years. What we believe was a simpler time.
So, we’ve decided to do what we can to have that. A simpler life. Some call it homesteading. We like to say were keeping up with the times while trying to get back to our roots.
