A little discussion with Tractorvet on another forum got me to wondering. He said he wanted to move to someplace like Montana,at least 50 miles from the nearest neighbor. Would any of you REALLY want to live like that?
It all sounds good,but I think it's a different story when you get there. We looked at a ranch in the Ozarks about 15 years ago that was so far out in the middle of nowhere that the sun set between there and town. The realtor that went down with us from Salem Mo wouldn't even drive his car back there because it wasn't four wheel drive. He told us we were the first ones he'd ever showed the place to. Said everybody else that was interested got about half way and said forget it,it was too far out in the middle of nowhere. It was beautiful,no doubt about that,but all I could see in my mind was that hillbilly and the realtor running up over the hill waving my money and doing woo hoos,leaving me standing there wondering what the h@ll I'd just done.I'll guarantee you wouldn't go to town more than twice a month at most from a place like that.
Don't get me wrong,I want to live in the Ozarks or the Blue Ridge,but I want to be within a few miles of a general store so I can go sit around and BS everyday. I just want to be back in a valley without any neighbors within sight,that's all.
Someplace like that one we looked at would be OK if you were some kind of survivalist,but I'm too much of a social critter to live like that.

Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
