About this listen
When a resolute New Yorker acts on her long festering, secret hankering for a country home, she is thoroughly unprepared to deal with the consequences. These include houseguests who won't leave, trash that spontaneously regenerates, gardens of unearthly delights, critters in the form of ticks and carpenter ants, HOA rules and regulations that invite flaunting, blackouts and whiteouts, and an alarming amount of compacted fireplace ash. Her new second home—a little more than a simple cottage—with its five bedrooms and four bathrooms (and a few pesky mold and asbestos issues), turns out to be the love of her life and a full-time job.
Join Mary as she documents the joys and tribulations of ownership over the course of six years in the charming community of Bucknoll, tucked away in the upper-right hand corner of Pennsylvania. Here, she lures her family and friends to visit, indulge in after dinner killer Scrabble games, and take on the odd plumbing job or two.
The Bucknoll Cottage Chronicles invites you to experience the agonies and ecstasies of country living, home renovation, and life in a small-town community.

Tim Cotton has been a police officer for more than 30 years. The writer in him has always been drawn to the stories of the people he has met along the way. Dealing with the standard issue ne’er-do-wells as a patrol officer, homicide detective, polygraph examiner, and later as the lieutenant in charge of the criminal investigation division certainly provides an interesting backdrop - but more often he writes about the regular folks he encounters, people who need his help, or those who just want to share a joke or even a sad story.

Between binging every tv show in existence to conquering TikTok to becoming a (semi) empty-nester, Ali experienced her share of turmoil (including an early case of COVID), but she also grew a little, learned a lot, and found comfort in some unexpected people and places. In Ali’s Well That Ends Well, Wentworth turns her gimlet eye to the year no one saw coming.

Nick and Lesley Albert yearn to leave the noise, stress, and pollution of modern Britain and move to the countryside, where the living is good, the air sweet, with space for their dogs to run free. Suddenly out of work and soon to be homeless, they set off in search of a new life in Ireland, a country they had never visited. As their adventure began to unfold, not everything went according to plan. How would they cope with banks that didn’t want customers, builders who didn’t need work, or the complex issue of where to buy some chickens?

It was early evening and a new acquaintance had come to retrieve his daughter from a play date. Instead of driving up in a minivan, he arrived by water, tacking his sailboat smartly across a squiggly channel in the marsh, throwing a rope overboard, and zipping back home, his gleeful daughter riding in the wake. Who knew you could do such a thing? And how could you resist befriending a man such as that?

Over the course of a single year, our nameless narrator heroically tries to keep her small brood of four chickens alive despite the seemingly endless challenges that caring for another creature entails. From the 40-below nights of a brutal Minnesota winter to a sweltering summer which brings a surprise tornado, she battles predators, bad luck, and the uncertainty of a future that may not look anything like the one she always imagined. A stunning, brilliantly insightful meditation on life and longing that will stand beside such modern classics as H is for Hawk and Gilead.

Bucknoll Cottage: An Engaging Read
This book takes the reader on a pleasantly rolling amble through the pleasures and vicissitudes of owning a second home in the “country”. It was a pleasure to read. I’ll bet many Boomers have had similar experiences, and reading about the author’s fully engaged me as it brought back so many memories of times gone by and the myriad happy surprises and “oh no” moments. To boot, the author’s wry sense of humor had me chuckling throughout.
