We have about a section of land here that we rent out the pasture. In 1977 this place was cheap, you can easy spend more on a house now then we did in 77. We raised our kids here and never wanted to get rid of it. On a normal year we will spend about a month and a half here in the spring and the same in the fall. In between we go to Omaha to see the grandkids, then to Michigan to see my wife's family. Ten K miles round trip back to AZ for the winter. Its been a good way of life until this crap going around. Nothing like having a bulleye on your back.

If you spent a month in CO Joe in this kind of weather then your just as tough! As far as the old house goes, just like everything that sits for a long time its going south. If things get really bad we could move a wood stove into the house and stay in it over winter. Boy I hope it doesn't get that bad!!!

Thanks for all your advise guys!
