Swapping Altitude for Acreage

Pull up a chair, follow along, and enjoy the trade off of Mountain View’s for quiet country roads.

About

Welcome to MileHigh2MilesAway — my personal chronicle of our big leap from Colorado’s high altitude to the vast acreage of upstate New York. Built to keep family posted, this blog doubles as a witty field guide to simpler country living: awkward moments, backyard revelations, local characters, photos, and practical tips for anyone considering (or chuckling at) a cross-country reset.
