A farm for us

Just wanted to let everyone know about our good fortune. Dottie/equus and I are soon to be moving to a 10½ acre farm. After talking to the current owner for the last couple of weeks,we will be taking over payments and the Farm is ours. This is the same farm where we got all that Flint we took to the Jamboree. Our horses are already there so all we have to do is move,and transfer utilities. Practically no change in our current expenses. Somebody, somewhere is looking out for us,and we are grateful!! Yes there is a lot of work that needs to be done,but isn't that what we were talking about just a while back. It's even kind of what Nativedude was talking about in his thread. Not really but sorta'... Anyway I'm just babbling now, so I'll shut up for now.

Congrats. This is definitely a case where "buying the farm" is a good thing.

Fantastic, Poco! Congratulations to you and Dottie! :clap:

There's nothing like raising your own produce, meat, and dairy! :)

Of course, you will now fall under the Quality Control Department's "Farm and Business Division." Crash and I will be delighted to assist you with scheduling your weekly shipments of samples to us. :innocent:

I am now in the process of re-evaluating our friendship. That squirrel comment was downright cruel, unless you meant that you were going to fly him here first-class, ALIVE and IN GOOD HEALTH.

When pondering the merits of our friendship, it's best that I think on a full stomach. Perhaps some apple, cherry, and blueberry jam would help. :innocent:

Stop interfering with the Quality Control Department. :sneaky2: Remember, you're not only messing with me, you're messing with Crash, too. And Crash has a BAN BUTTON, that I can't believe he hasn't used on you yet.

Maybe if I send him some fresh batteries. :innocent:

Ken, Sorry, but as it stands right now all we have is horses. But please feel free to come down and take one for a "spin" (I have a "spinner" in mind for you, she likes men, until they saddle her up) You may want to bring some padding with you, remember all the flint? Muahahahaha!!:bat:

I'm a patient man. I'll wait 'till the farm is up and running. :)

Equus here by the way Ken I will make sure you ride her in soft dirt. Also I want to say thank you all for the replies. I know that I haven't been on in awhile but been pretty busy. I wasn't sure what else to add to what you all already know about me. By the way who wants to help us move next weekend? Anybody?

I'd happily help you move.... but there's that annoying little barrier called the Atlantic. However, I'll be with you in spirit!

are you sure you aren't talking about my wife? (just kidding :innocent:)

The best advice I can give you at this point is : thank the lord for all your blessings. Keep him in your heart and he will keep you in his.

It's an exciting time for you guys and I know you will both do your best. It's a lot of hard work, but I'm sure you guys are up to it. Though I can't help you move, I am with you guys in spirit.

Wishing you the best and much love. Congrats!

Congrats on the farm. I'm sure there are a LOT of things that need to be sampled during the move. Perhaps the QC department will help you move. After all, they are you friends and here to help.

Thanks guys. I am looking forward to going to the farm. That has been a dream come true for a long time.

Now that sounds very much like an appropriation of a bribe:innocent:

A bribe? By golly, I think she's right. Perhaps we should report him to the BAR or the local bar. It should be worth a round of drinks just to keep this quiet.
