90 acres of remote property achieved!
« on: April 09, 2025, 08:54:47 AM »
Is life to comfortable? Have a real albeit decrepit house? Well why not move to raw forested land with water and live in a 30ft trailer again!!

This will serve as a place holder as I will post the various builds. as I will be making every thing from scratch aside from the power plant and trailer.

Real work start probably next year June as all the snow is melted and ground some what dry.
Ignorance is not bliss, You may not know there is a semie behind you but you'll still be a hood ornimant!

Nothing fails like prayer, Two hands clasped in work will achieve more in a minute then a billion will in a melenia in prayer. In other words go out and do some real good by helping!

Sounds like you are not on site yet remember the first stranger you see is likely a County Tax Accessor looking to do a valuation / comparison to set a base tax rate that will be with you for life - I had some old guy in a econo-box car roll in and was given the choice of being hostile or friendly, I chose plain nice and volunteered my situation and hopes.... My relator had never heard of a 10-acre tracts taxes going down 25% EVER  : )

Please please essay your Wonderland story here!

Well we did survey, It is ceder swamp, we're leaning on not going with that land but there is others 40acre lot with surface water available more sand mix soil, so some thing more serviceable. How fast the seller accepted cancellation seems to indicate they knew dam well they misrepresented the property, We all ready accepted that a good chunk was water but they implied that 25 or more acres as usable dryish land.

Mean while the joy of cleaning the yard, and building the waste oil boiler, as the new property, the sheep, especially the lambing barn is having in floor heating!

But the same rules will apply we want raw forested land ideally with surface water accessible.

Here they all ready have a base tax rate annoyingly, first thing going up is aggressive fencing, so they will be sitting at the gate!
I fall under the producer category with raising sheep so luckily I get a farming rate.

Local government aren't communist so it is reasonable rate, the federal government here is essentially CCP so they seem to hate farmers atm, hopefully they will be flushed down the toilet end of this month. IQ test for for Canadians.

So hopefully not to much longer to start the photo log
