    I wish you were coming to America in 1950 when so many of us were growing up on beautiful family farms, and enjoying so many happy days in our safe, Christian communities. My mother's grandparents came here from Malmo and had a good life in rural New Hampshire. Those days are long gone. So many things have changed, and I am sorry . I wonder what America will be like in the days to come. I wish you all the best.

    @@belamoure not sure where you get your information, but this is not quite as accurate as you might think. Yes, there are guns, and lots of them, because we have a history of protecting ourselves against tyranny, and we like to hunt (the US is huge and staying away from gang infested neighborhoods in the big cities is not that hard to do). And drugs, but it's not like it's unsafe to go outdoors for fear of accidental inhalation. ... and as if there aren't drugs in Europe ... or other dangers, too.

I am watching a whole lot of homesteaders and I'm always a bit jealous about the freedom you have to build and grow the land. From the heart I wish the whole family a very good start in your new life....

    Does anyone know what happened to Simeon's parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law back in Sweden? Are they still there or did the Swedish government take the property for drilling for natural resources? I remember that's why Simeon and Alex moved, and to pursue another opportunity, but is the rest of Simeon's family still there?
