Guy's, Here we are on a board full of folks that go ga-ga for old tractors, and you're talking about land prices as if it was 1960 and not 2004! Take a trip to your High School reunion; your bound to discover that even the prom queen has aged a bit. Things change in our life time and we don't like it, but nothing is new. My Kiowa- Apache ancestors were the finest mounted cavalary ever, but riding down the plains after settlers, only brought more settlers. The other side of the family got here in 1634 and helped found the republic. But that won't cut the upper crust if I try to join the North Andover, MA Country Club. Here on my own land in VT, is evidence of residence from 20,000 to 6000 to 250 years ago. Lots of living going on here over the years. So I'm going to do my level best to do my best; to respect the land and waters and my neighbors and teach my sons what little I've learned and can remember. Yep the land is going to go up (and occationaly down) and some things will change, but not our stuggle to make it better. So grab your piece of the world and wrastle it and leave a of legacy that they can talk about in the next 200 years!

Yeh, the 3 acres and Old house I am fixing up here in michigan, 30,000.00 But the nieghbor,(farm)acoss the street.- sold 40 acres off for a subdivision. now, I have to deal with that ,and take more money when I sell this house. But when I am out working at the house and hear the birds, and just injoy the soroundings , I am really saddend by the thought, that I will sell this house and property and not be able to find any other to replace it. As I have seen many times over, the land binging eatten by big time city folk. talk later,

You never know who you might run into on this board. I spent some time on the tennis courts and in the swimming pool at the North Andover Country Club in the '60s. Never could see what was so appealing about the burnt up golf course or small club house that was a converted New England barn. It was exclusive then. Must be super exclusive now. Still live about ten miles from there.
