(off topic) But I must say, Peaches, I saw pictures of your house on GFY. It is perfect. I would love to duplicate it in the hills of Southern Indiana or in Northern California near the beach.
How far are you from the closest town? Do you have broadband? Nothing is better than going back to nature!

I'm about 15 minutes away from basic shopping - several grocery stores, SquallMart, sit down and fast food restaurants, liquor store, etc. and about an hour away from a major "mall sprawl".
I have DSL through the local phone company who also owns the cable company which offers cable broad band. This is fast becoming a "retirement" town for the middle to upper class folks in Atlanta who don't want to move to FL and don't want to be too far away from their kids/grandkids, so we have more amenities than most "small towns" and will probably get more.
I'm not sure how I feel about that, lol!
It's a tiny house, but I moved from a house more than twice as big and I was really to downsize - less to clean (as if I clean it....

)
If I can keep the stupid psycho bitch from building next to me, I'll have the cul-de-sac all to my own and only see parts of houses during the winter.
Wig's about 10 miles away and knows how to do anything contructionwise, so when I need trees cut or a piece of damaged deck replaced, I call him.
