John, great idea. Glad you had the support of 1 or 2 pictures choices to help you. =)

*jclo3313* · 04-21-2009, 06:55 PM

One more hour.

OK, back from the country. Tromped through the woods and I do mean woods trying to pick out the best trees so they don't knock those down. This is really hard to picture. Over 14 acres, how to pick the perfect spot when all you can see is trees? Very difficult. There is a bit of driveway on one side of the property that goes back about 400 feet. Figured to use that as my starting point. Meant to take some photos while I was out there, but really only trees to see. Figure I need some before and after shots though.

Before you know it that property will be exactly how you want it!

LORD, I hope so.

Problem is figuring out "exactly" how I want.

We did that once, and decided to keep all trees bigger than 6" diameter. When the smaller ones were gone, we selectively culled the others to position things how we liked. Gotta get rid of some trees to see the woods

That is great advice. At least a beginning point. Although I think there are LOTS of trees over 6". Still it will be a start. I am actually only going to work with maybe an area 200 feet square for now (the rest I plan to leave as is) and I have marked what I thought were the "best trees" either based on size or shape. Of course I am sure they will leave others as well. But, yea I need to remove the smaller ones and all the underbrush to make a final decision on where to put everything.

I have never lived "in the country" before. Never had to deal with a well and septic tank and deer and other creatures walking around the yard. It will certainly be a new adventure, but I know I will enjoy all the space and privacy.

You are right, the space and the privacy are beautiful. We left a 100-acre farm (of which we owned 2 acres but had the run of the rest) for a 1/3-acre plot in town. I miss the space,and my private rifle-range, but do NOT miss having to mow 5-plus acres per week. I also miss the 18hp tractor I used to mo that with, though.
You will enjoy the country as long as you don't EXPECT things to work as they do in the city. If nothing else, the problems and animals and septic system woes will give you something to laugh about - later
