| Three Friends Looking for Adventure... They had already gotten their degrees– in liberal arts, education, business, and good old- fashioned survival. They had not only written mortgages, they had paid them off. They could soothe a teething baby, write a letter to the editor, and bake a souffle– usually all at the same time and without interrupting anyone’s dinner to complain about it. They had elected seven presidents, picketed for paid day care, campaigned for national health insurance and secured parental leave policies at workplaces across the nation. They had saved the ozone layer, the whale, and the Southern hemlock, all while keeping their streets safe from drunk drivers, their schools safe from drugs, and their sons safe from war. They had raised families, raised funds, and raised their share of hell. Now they were moving on. Thus begins the story of Cici, Bridget and Lindsay, three best friends who were ready to change their lives. But when they decided to buy a tumbled-down old mansion in the middle of the Shenandoah Valley, they could not begin to imagine just how drastic that change would be... Read how it all began in A YEAR ON LADYBUG FARM, available now Berkley Books..
