The Lovely Deseret

Hello people!
Wowzer, how much greater can life be? I wish I could bundle up my happiness and excitement and toss it all over all the ridiculous people out there who mistakenly think their life can't be most happy and enjoyable. It's all about what you want.
I left Knox Farm last June and have spent the summer on good ol' West Mountain with the fam! I have spent the days with my little sister Abigail, riding and thus selling my amazing little pony Bindi to a FANTASTIC home, playing with Helga and her puppies (5 boys), going to driving clinics with Chris and Phil, spending time with a cute farm boy in Idaho, and going on some amazing wilderness adventures with the most amazing folks. Overall, a most enjoyable summer. 
A new adventure is beginning! I am moving to Boulder, Utah for the next 3 months to live in a beautiful cave and string pack horses along through the desert of the Escalante National Monument. I will be living on a beautiful farm where they try to be as sustainable and off the grid as possible. Totally dreamy. With a pretty milk cow, gorgeous grass and alfalfa pastures, beautiful horses, some legit cowboys, a fair amount of hippie folks, and of course some of the most amazing people that I will be living with, it makes for a most magical environment just made for Allison Wonder Landes.
I will be learning lots about how to manage a homestead, sun drying tomatoes, making pesto, making cheese, milking cows, slaughtering pigs and turkeys, and of course making my way through desert environments by horseback. How am I the luckiest girl I know? If you think it, it comes true! Be out there, be brave, think about what you really want, and make it happen.
