4. Thank You wcmagumba. Like a movie house? Maybe we all get rich renting it out to Hollywood. Nah, never work. Oh well...

My dream is to live in a place like that.
Looks like there's a lot of work going on there!
If it weren't for all the arthritis, I'd be volunteering to come help, and I wouldn't let you see the tiny house that I'd be building in the field.

6. Ha Ha Hee Ha Great dream Dem2theMax! Arthritis notwithstanding, we could work something out.

Volunteering need not need physical labor after all. You could free us for other work while you tended to our dog and cat, who are always looking for back scritches and head pats.
Meanwhile, Thank You for your comments, especially being up front about sneaking around in the field!

I pet-sat for 20 years. And had dogs, cats and birds of my own.

I've seen the pictures of your dog and cat, and I'm already in love with them, so I'll pack the car up tomorrow and I'll be heading your way.

8. 'Tis a deal Dem2theMax! We could plan either the hi way or the low way, which would take a bit longer but be prettier.

That's if you drive. By air my wife and I would re-mortgage our house, re-take out a big loan and charter a Gulfstream both ways and come getcha. We're easy. Thank You!!

9. Low way, always. Scenic route is always better.

Although, I now have an EV and I have yet to take a road trip with it. I have a level two charger at home so I'm spoiled.

You're definitely not allowed to remortgage the house. You just got there! I could see from things on your porch that there's definitely work to do. Money needs to go to all that fun work. (That IS a really clear photo!) Can see projects that are either going into, or have come out of the house. Even though it's work, it has to be an absolute joy to be able to live there! Can you tell I'm jealous?

10. OK. Stay put. Will do. Work and enjoy it. You're right about absolute joy, we are blessed. Don't know what to tell you

jealously, except you might live vicariously through our experiences. Thank You Dem2theMax!
