Back on the farm. The longer I live the better it looks to me, particularly after spending 14 months in a 300 sq foot RV! Loved California, loved access to my kids. But living in Wyoming is living large! Lots of space and very little interference.
Here are few of the benefits:
There's nobody around. You can run outside in your pjs to get something from the garage without a bit of concern about your non-existent or far distant neighbors.
Few stoplights. You can drive for miles without stopping for traffic lights or stop signs. We drive 30 miles to Powell probably 2-3 times a week, and encounter one stop sign, and one stoplight.
Cheap local entertainment. You can go to the movie theater for $5 on Fri/Sat nights, and $3 for Sat. matinees.
People wave at you when you drive past them on the road, whether you know them or not.
No lines. You rarely wait in line anywhere, whether it's the gas station, the grocery store, the feed store, or the post office.
Gas is cheaper. $3.50 a gallon. Plus there's really nowhere to go.
No more fast food. The only places that have fast food are gas stations. Not on my list.
