One thing I failed to mention I think is a point that I probably should make. I'm a self proclaimed nerd--wife is too. My wife and I are not bar hoppers or party people. We got all that out of our system while in college. Now we are blessed if we get a "date night" every couple of months. So as far as any country "lack of nightlife" We won't be bored without the bars or whatnot. We tend to be so busy doing things with the 4 of us.. we rarely take time out to go party. I'd say a perfect night for us (with kids included) would be a bonfire, roasting hotdogs and making s'mores. We're pretty simple and easy.

I have to say the whole idea of the well, pumps, etc. is COMPLETELY foreign to me. I do worry about that but if I do some digging into and learning NOW.. I may actually pull off having some semblance of understanding. In looking for properties I have seen things in listings saying "soil tests" etc. I assume that is for the well.. Oh so much to learn.



Keep em coming folks. I'm enjoying the education and hopefully a lot of you are enjoying being able to brag a bit on your slice of heaven you have made into your home!

sledge, you and your wife sound like us, simple people, enjoy the real things in life that most people take for granted, family oriented. of course if i didn't think that was the best way to be, I wouldnt be that way. But kudos, sound like my kinda people.
