Greetings on this Memorial Day.
We went out to our newly acquired property yesterday afternoon. Magnum has been referring to it as "the property", which I find Bo-Ring.
Here, I will refer to it as Middle Earth, for now.
This was our first visit since closing. We'd only been out the one time to look at it. I'd say I like it even more now than that first visit. No buyer's remorse as of yet.
Meego and Wolfgang were along to help decide prospective trail routes, etc.
We located a small babbling brook, thanks to some recent rains.
This dear deer hung out with us pretty much the whole time. It was there when we arrived, and seemed to be watching us as if to say,
"Hello. Welcome. So... when're you leaving?"
As we were leaving, we also met our "next door" neighbors - a nice young couple. They have a house and some outbuildings and lots of equipment. I believe they live up there year round.
They told us a little about the area and other residents - including the wildlife.
They mentioned bobcats and the mountain lions that like to hunt the deer. I believe I'd found evidence of such while traipsing about.
As for us, we plan to keep it relatively wild. There's no electricity nor water source and just a small shed.
Wilma Flintstone was more civilized.
