No. Not really LOL. We went out to the property again this past weekend to make sure the area we cleared out from the last time was still neat. You know anytime we go out there we’re going to come back with something to talk about. Wouldn’t you know it, we had to cut the grass again. No surprise. It’s been a week, it’s been raining like crazy, and well…grass is going to do what grass does when it gets rain and sunshine. [Read more…] about I See……Dead People?!
Hello Everyone. Today, I want to share with you one of the tools we used in our search for land and I will do this in two parts. In today’s post, I will do an introduction to GIS and how you can potentially locate the tool for your area. In the second part, I will talk more about how we used the tool in hopes that it can help you on your journey as well. Also, I will try my best not to geek out. I am in the software industry and by nature sometimes that’s what I do. The cool thing is that being a little computer savvy can help in your land search as well.

Even after a 6 month, long, and tedious closing, I look back on it and think – “Man, that was the easy part!”. It seems as if we’ve been met by challenges at every corner.

So, the saga continues. If you recall in our last journey update, we were working on access to our property. If you missed it, hop on over to the blog post about “Easements and Road Frontage” and check it out first. As we continue to work on access to our property, things never seem to be as easy as they ought to be. You would think that if you own your property it would be as simple as finding some dirt, rocks, and building yourself a driveway, but not so. [Read more…] about Driveways & State Maintained Roads
That’s a pretty picture isn’t it? Green grass….blue skies….trees….and an electric pole. While this picture is full of greenery, I must tell you, we aren’t just looking at a pretty picture. We’re looking at the easement to our property; it’s blocked. And that’s a problem…. [Read more…] about Easements and Road Frontage
