Dear Family and Friends,
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from our new lives in the Land of Lincoln!
It is with great pleasure we announce the latest and greatest in our lives… The undertaking of our very own wind farm!! That’s right, upon relocating to the prairies of Lincoln, IL Brad decided that the little gusts of wind needed ownership, they needed a place to be trained, grown, and developed into the best wind the earth could ever want. This is also Phase 1 of “Going Green” for the Illinois Belleys. In Phase 2, we hope to restore the ancient Asian tradition of binding feet to reduce our carbon footprint.
Lindy has realized that the duty of a wind farmer can be quite demanding. She arises with Brad every morning to gauge the ferocity of the little wind pups. (Early on, we discovered that nurturing the wind from infancy provides greater opportunities for fine-tuning that may not be possible as say, teenage wind.) One of the hardest things to train a wind pup is how to drive rain horizontally while flicking water up and under umbrellas; similarly, driving dirt into open eyeballs is another skill quite difficult to master. Brad makes certain their training dust is always available.
It takes approximately three human months, or seventeen wind years, for a pup to reach maturity. We have yet to see a full maturation process, but the little guys have been budding into beautiful creatures right before our eyes.
You may be wondering, what’s next for the wind? Once a year, as a last hurrah, we let them run wild through a local trailer park. What they don’t realize is that it is also a final lesson in working together, forming an unstoppable force. But, the inconvenient truth is the bittersweet moment will be drawing near when we must release the wind to be harnessed by Al Gore. We know they’ll be in good hands and used to better the earth one breeze at a time.
It is our hope that this letter finds you in good health and joyful spirit for the upcom
ing Christmas season! And the next time you are frozen because of blustery gust of wind, ask yourself, did he have a cultivating home?
Blessings and Love, Brad & Lindy

To celebrate Brad's birthday we took
our wind to a local amusement park.
