Have lived in the deep south my entire life. Things went really badly during 2020 and we realized we needed to get out. Started saving and preparing, our plan was to move before the next election.

We have bought a 1920’s farmhouse that still has 9 acres. 100 year old apple trees, blueberries, vineyard. It’s amazing. Part of the land is industrial zoned with power and I’m going to build my machine shop there. We got a steal of a deal, it would be a $500k house and land here.

I bought a '98 Chevy box truck. The boy and I will be making our second trip tomorrow.

    Ah so cool, I want to also live on a farm like that, but the missis wants to live in the city.

    What do you do for living there?

      A little play farm near the big city has been our dream for a long time. We’ll have chickens, rabbits, maybe a steer. There are deer everywhere. Love venison but hate deer hunting, so efficiently and easily harvesting them will be great.

      My wife works from home as a RN, I’ve been doing manufacturing consulting. Consulting has been miserable, so I’m just going to start my own machine shop.
