If we were open to the idea of moving from our Cottage and able to settle in the US, it's just the sort of homestead I'd be looking for! I imagine everything has been well engineered *grin* Good luck Bobert! |

05 Feb 11 - 12:22 PM (#3089243) Subject: RE: BS: Buy Bobert's Farm, Part 2... From: Bobert Wrong farm, Amos... Ya' didn't go down Pine Grove far enough... Ya' kinda have to pass Freindly Lane and Varener Lane on the left and then you'll come to two drive ways on the4 right that are kind next to one another... Take the first one all the way back and you'll be here... B~ |

05 Feb 11 - 12:29 PM (#3089248) Subject: RE: BS: Buy Bobert's Farm, Part 2... From: DMcG In the UK you might get a basic property about 25ft by 50ft for that price - as long as it is an average sort of area. How depressing ... |

06 Feb 11 - 12:25 PM (#3089875) Subject: RE: BS: Buy Bobert's Farm, Part 2... From: Bill D Durn, Bobert... that place is almost as close to the 'end of of the road' as anyone would wanta be! No wonder we hear all these tales of plowing thru the snow to go get beer in the Winter |

06 Feb 11 - 12:49 PM (#3089891) Subject: RE: BS: Buy Bobert's Farm, Part 2... From: Bobert Believe me, Bill, it's a job... The 9 inches we got week before last took 4 hours on the Kabota to get out... Plus, what you can't see, that is if you found the right farm, is that the driveway is mighty steep... I use 4 WD in my truck when it doesn't have snow on it!!! BTW, I'm not too sure why Google takes folks to the wrong place??? B~ |

06 Feb 11 - 01:00 PM (#3089899) Subject: RE: BS: Buy Bobert's Farm, Part 2... From: Bill D Google's positioning based on addresses is never exact. IF you know the exact longitude & latitude, Google Earth can take you right there. The trick would be, once you know the location, to use Google Earth to go there, zoom in, get the precise numbers and post those. Or..if you just wanta show folks, zoom in to a nice level, and take a screen capture photo and post that somewhere (to add to on the ground pics you have already taken) I can see that potential buyers are limited to those who are not intimidated by the location & the hills. |

It's not the money, mind you 'cause I'm sure that 12 grand to you ain't chimp change but, ya see, you really ain't holler material, at all... Ya' see, ever since we got rid of that last gun nut the holler has been peaceful and quiet and I just couldn't do this to these fine people... But thanks... BTW, we're you get 12 grand???
