Purchased this land 18 years ago. Best decision I've ever made other than the woman I married.

Beautiful!!!
I'm not sure what I would do without my ranch. When I'm not there I want to be there.

That is beautiful.

There's nothing like having your own place.

There aren't any skeeters there in June are there? I bought my chunk of dirt when I was 19 over a pay phone and had never even seen it. Since then I have trapped every legal furbearer MN has to offer from it. The Badger, cross fox and Marten were ones I never expected to be able to catch here.


I have nothing clever to put here.

Mosquitoes are only half the issue. Deer flies are visious.

I don’t own a happy place, but I do have 24/7/365 access to one.

Is that a current picture? Sure, is brown for this time of year and with all that water.

It is incredibly dry up here and we haven't had any meaningful rain in a month and a half.

I have one of those happy places! I call mine serenity. It is a good drive to get to, but well worth it. Only 14 acres but right to the west of it is a national forest.

Nothing like owning your own piece of dirt and being able to hunt, fish and relax on it

Yep that is dry. I have had 1.65 inches of rain since the first of June till last week. Lasy week I got .75's and was a very much overdue welcome. I planted alfalfa (for hay) one month ago hoping for just something to get it started. Well, now it is up just beautiful and now my worst fear is a hard killing frost. Had some frost already but looking good for the next 10 days.

I should have irrigated (flood) it but that can be a disaster too on new seeded crop.

Thanks 160.

Nice! Where’d all your leaves go, or is it last years pic?

My happy place was sold a few years ago and is now part of a big development.

That about brings a tear to my eye. I am sure my chunk of dirt will get sold right after I die and someone will bulldoze most of my apple trees to build more houses or something.
