Thirty years ago, the author met his current wife, married, and moved into a hundred-year-old farmhouse at the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in northwest South Carolina, where both of them were high school coaches in local schools. This book is a collection of lengthy blog postings about their life in this home, from house renovation, local wildlife, and adopting pets, to local neighbors, holidays, and coaching moments. Many of these posts read like personal rants on the discussed subject with a satirical flavor, avoiding a more comforting memoir tone. There were some thoughtful moments, but this was mainly an OK look at moments in the author’s life around his home and wife. ( )
