We had a 6 year plan. We bought our land, we'd slowly start working on it and by the time Bob retired in 6 years we'd be ready to build. The timing changed when Bob was offered early retirement - and took it - no looking back! This worked out great for us in terms of time & money. We really want to move from our current home and live mortgage free with lower taxes. The plan now is to start building as soon as possible. We've got the house plan drawn, priced logs, have decided where we want the house on the lot and have started clearing the land. This blog will be a chronicle of our homesteading. From the first walks around our property to move in date, we hope to capture it all here in words, photos, & video. Friends & family keep tuned in - you may all be called on for expertise, a strong back, or maybe just to join us on the porch for a cup of coffee!

Break time...

Went on a short trip to Campobello Island, New Brunswick, Canada and the Maine coast for 5 days. Had a good time, weather was great, tent camping was not. We can no longer sleep on the ground - even with really good air mattresses. So one night in the tent and we found a great cottage right on the bay, reasonably priced, with a real bed - ah! From now on it's the motorhome - or motorcycle and hotel or cottage. Check out the pics..

Can we possibly get another thing loaded on this bike?
