Sold the farm - finally

[Cathy_H]

I will be disconnecting the puter in a couple of days - not sure if we will have one while we are building the house or not. We're building 7 miles from here - nice level ground with trees on 3 sides and dead end street...... Lee turned 60 on the 14th, we closed on the 15th & our 39th wedding anniversay was the 17th........................ Took over a year but the farm has been sold - buyers market so they dictate what they want - all appliances, washer, dryer, microwave, window treatments, John Deere tractor & mower, riding mower & $4400 in closing costs after lowering the price - but Lee got his birthday present - commercial 61 inch cut zero turn mower - zip right through those pastures - I might even start cutting the grass.......................... Our new barn, stalls, dry lots are ready for the animals - been working constantly since Lee's school was out - he misses not showing but hopes to be back next year....... Our 3 foals have been born - filly in June - colt Tuesday night and Lee's shetland mare Buckeye WCF Accappella had her first foal - a pinto colt last night.................. Basement has been dug - hopefully we can be in the new house by Christmas........

Hope to be back on the forum eventually - been here since the beginning so I'll be back!

Congratulations Cathy & Lee. I'm glad you were finally able to sell your house. Can't wait to see pictures of your new place once it is finished.

Congrats on your foals as well.

Well we have an open invitation at a friends house. We also have a 28 ft camper in the barn. Comfy & cozy. Will be spending lots of time observing but can't become a pest............ Once we get out of this house we won't have much to do while the house is being built.

I'll check that out. Friend said I could use her computer but I don't want to take advantage of her generosity.

From one 'longtimer' here to another....I know you must be happy and relieved to be able to move on with building, etc....will look forward to your return to LB!

Hope all goes well, and quickly on the building and ultimate move-in!
