whfan74 2,015 #1 Posted July 29, 2014 As some of you know my family has purchased my parents property out in the country. For just over a month we have been packing, unpacking, organizing, and trying to get settled. Had some time today to take a couple of Horses out. I am really digging the country life and don't miss the subdivision one bit! 18 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Geno 1,928 #5 Posted July 29, 2014 I've been in the country most of my life, never going back to the city. Now the Horses can run free! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WheelHorse79 271 #6 Posted July 29, 2014 Congratulations Scott! That's a nice place your parents have. I enjoyed the visit last December when I purchased your extra 1045. Did all those Wheel Horses and equipment of your Dad's get thrown into the deal? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neil 2,398 #11 Posted July 30, 2014 Growing up in the city of London was great as a young pup but give me the countryside any day.

Racinbob 10,396 #15 Posted July 30, 2014 You can't beat living in the country. Hardly a day goes by when I don't miss our old place up there. We talk about moving back quite often but the odds against it seem to increase along with our age. Having seen your new home last fall Scott I know it's beautiful and in a great area. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wheel-N-It 2,967 #19 Posted July 30, 2014 Congragulations Scott!!! You and the family are gonna love this new life. I'm very happy for your children too. Time to buy more Wheel Horses now that you have plenty of room for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fireman 1,021 #20 Posted July 30, 2014 Man I can't tell you how envious I am Scott! I do live in a rural town but I live in a lake community and unfortunately it's all hill. My house is built into a hillside and I have no back yard and a very small front yard with no room to roam. I could move to another house in the area but I'm in the home stretch with my job and have just over 5 years till I'm out of there and the North East. Going to head to Western North Carolina or North East Tennessee. What ever house I get it's gonna sit on a big ole' piece of property. I'm already ahead on my current house and the goal is to sell it and buy a house down there cash and have no mortgage. That's the plan anyway let's just hope it comes to fruition!

Road-Track 39 #22 Posted July 31, 2014 Scott Congratulations! I see your kids like it. I was lucky to grow up in the country and have always preferred it. Your kids will get much more quality outdoor time which is great. I see more Wheel Horses and implements in your future. I just mowed some of my trails tonight on my 25 acres. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kudzu3 323 #23 Posted July 31, 2014 Glad you are happy. I grew up in the country, retired, and did something very stupid...moved in a subdivision. I have been here for fifteen years, hated every minute of it, tried to sell for the last five, and want so bed to get out of this noisy mess. Congratulations my friend, you will be happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Desko 552 #24 Posted July 31, 2014 Enjoy the country life every one can agree that growing up in the country is great I grew up on a 100 acre farm and love it. Best of all is hunting and riding around with the horse the cows get jealous of it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whfan74 2,015 #25 Posted July 31, 2014 Thanks for all of the comments. This is the first time I have lived out in the country and am glad the family was able to make the switch. So far so good. Everything is just about organized and put away. Now remembering where it is will be the tough part. Ken---we only own about 1 1/2 acres but are completely surrounded by farm land. None of the neighbors are close at all except for the grain elevator across the street. Here is the new place..... 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
