Everyone Has Their Ideals

Taking a study break.

For twenty years I have thought about what my ideal living situation would be so far, it's this:

• Rural setting
• 5 acres: 3 pasture, 1 wooded, 1 pond
• Year-round running stream
• Concrete/adobe enviro-house

I've been looking in this area since first arriving, and have found multiple locations that would work. I've also noticed land prices stabilizing, and, in some cases dropping. I figure in another couple of years the time to strike will be right. That should coincide with the timing of business starting to grow. I think this area is going to remain one of the nicest on the west coast, if not in the world. I can't imagine living somewhere else.
