I'm not on here as much as I used to be because I'm staying covered in work. Between my business, getting our rental house ready for the market and sold, and getting my FILs place cleaned up, partially remodeled, and sold, the last 18 months or so has been a blur......
Fortunately it's not getting any better....LOL.....
I say that because we just closed Monday on 10 3/4 acres outside of Albemarle, in Stanly county.
I've been trying to get equipment that's been setting back in working condition, etc since we first looked at the place back in August.
Hopefully the weather will cooperate and I can start doing some brush cutting and clearing this weekend. Then,maybe, I can see a little better where the lines are actually running in relation to the topography and figure out the best place for the drive.
Ultimately we'll have around 1/2 mile of driveway. About 1500 feet straight i and make a right for another 650 feet or so on a deeded easement, then around 1200 feet on the property itself.
The challenge will be working around a spring fed creek that winds across the upper part....but I think I've got that figured out.....until I hit the area below the waterfall and have to cross back over to where the house will sit.
Yes, the place has not one, but three spring fed creeks. Two feeding on to it, and one originating right behind where we plan to put the house. It's also got a beautiful,rock, waterfall about 8 feet tall, and multiple little ones (a foot or so falling over more rocks).
I'll try to keep y'all updated with pics as we go along. The plan is to get everything cleared, move everything I've got that isn't essential to pretty our current place up, do some lite remodel on the house, and sell it to fund the new place.
If everything goes as planned, we'll be in the new place, with my wife having the house she wants, and me having a larger shop and be mortgage free.....If I survive another year or so of hard labor....LOL

Today's Featured Article - Grain Threshing in the Early 40's - by Jerry D. Coleman. How many of you can sit there and say that you have plowed with a mule? Well I would say not many, but maybe a few. This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
