Day 2 - #Bucolic #BeautifulWords

bucolic. As an adjective, bucolic refers to an ideal country life that many yearn for. ... A bucolic could be a short poem about pastoral (cow) life or a country person, who is stereotyped as a cowherd. Used as an adjective, bucolic can refer to an idealized rural life (think life with cows) or to herdsmen (more cows).

I really enjoy reading Josh Kilmer-Purcell's memoirs. He's funny, witty, observant, and says what he thinks. This one is all that, with a little bit of history and inspiration mixed in.

I just started this book, and so far it does not disappoint! I just finished reading his book I Am Not Myself These Days, and I like both his writing style and his sense of humor. This is his post-Aquadisiac the drag queen memoir about when he and his husband Brent bought a farm in upstate New York.

Or How two Manhattanites became Gentlemen Farmers. This book is less about farming and more about that dream of changing your life and how difficult it is, particularly when still have to work at your day job while doing it. It is an honest and engaging memoir. Well written and a good read.

I read his first 2 memoirs before we ever moved to Wisconsin (we've since moved from there) and it turned out the "rural Wisconsin" town he speaks of was only about 20 miles from us. Great read!!
