Rumen Nation

Rumen Nation

I used to raise goats. Before that, I was in the US Coast Guard. Now I'm a graduate student in George Mason University's History Department. I write mostly about history and genealogy research, with a bit of earth and sewing thread thrown in. Oh, I also volunteer at a Fire & Rescue Station, just to keep the adrenaline flowing.
