About Me

farmer

Hi I’m Steve.  My family and I live in Michigan.  These are my stories, thoughts, feelings, anecdotes… a lot of it is funny… seriously!  Some of it I think is funny, but you might not.  Some of it is real serious-like but not much.  I try to keep it light-hearted.  Someday I hope to get a kids book published.  If you subscribe, then when that happens you can say you knew me back when I was just a blogger… and how frickin’ cool would that be.

If you really want to get to know me, my Magazine Interview.

Thanks for stopping by… hope you have some fun on Brown Road!

    • Dear Steve,
      I literally grew up on Brown Road, on the outskirts of a small town in rural upstate NY – dairy farm country. I am a Silicon Valley success story these days but still love the scent and sight of an old worn barn coat.

      I’ll be reading more of your blog. Thank you,
      :) Mira A.

  2. I am looking forward to your posts!
    We moved to the country about 3,4 months ago…. and i have fallen completely head over heels in love with it. We still see city everyday (work and school), but we go home to a holiday.
    And yes, we too have goats (very naughty), sheep and a pig called Henry.

  3. Hey “bokkie”, thanks for all the nice replies. Funny, we also have adopted two goats recently also – back in late Fall, from a farm where my daughter rides horses, and althought they cam pre-named, one is actually named “Naughty”!! The other is named Heath. No pigs or sheep… yet. Maybe a horse in the future. Have a few post ideas about the goats!

  4. I see you are live in the country; however, the real question is, do you hunt? :) Hope you and your family enjoy every minute in Southwest Michigan!

    • Hi! No, I’m not a hunter, lots of my friends are but it’s never been my thing. I’d happily sit around a hunting lodge with some friends over a few beers but that’s about it. I like to fish occasionally. Hunting is huge around here though, especially deer hunting season of course, like a federal holiday… lol… people always used to say, never buy a car that was built during deer season… because all the regular, reliable employees would be gone those two weeks!!!

  5. Hi Steve,
    I like the tone of the blog. Glad you found me and that we’ve connected. I play guitar too. I’ve still got my original guitar from ’96. . .

    take care,
    Jared

  8. Just started reading your blog and wanted to say hi. I’m originally from southeast Michigan, moved away 9 years ago :)

  9. Steve, would love to have you write a post for The Write On Project. Next topic is “Guilt”, something you’ve probably never felt in your parenting career, right? :) Here’s the link: http://thewriteonproject.wordpress.com/participate/
    Let me know what you think, or just do it! Lovin’ your site, your style, and your vibe. Glad to have connected.

  10. I’m absolutely LOVING your blog! It’s such a fun, lighthearted read. AND educational! I mean, I just learned I’m developing BOOBS. But I can’t talk now – I have to go check my site stats for the 846th time (lol).

  11. i like your blog with plenty of content etc. i hope you don’t mind me saying but , i think you should add the ” read more ” button to your posts it saves visitors scrolling for ever if they like what they are reading they will click the button and read the rest , you can see it in my blog and most others . your posts don’t have categories and you should bring the amount of categories and tags up to a limit of 9/10 the search engines look for both , harry

  12. Hi Steve:
