I can get my hands on a 3/2 trailer with gas royalties sitting on 22 acres for only 49.000$.

Boonies? Small town?

You'all still live in the city...

We had a town meeting the other day. Important things
to discuss.

No big building here. We held the meeting by the big oak
tree in the park.

Every few years or so, we get together and paint the yellow
lines on our street....by hand.

Few years ago, the man that drives our firetruck went on
vacation...accidently took the keys. So we hot-wired the
truck. Now we can all drive it.

And we're back down to one pop machine in town...Pepsi.
We had a Coke machine, but it broke. So now..it's pepsi.

And that's all you can buy for miles around. Five miles and
I can buy a loaf of bread. But you have to be there before
9:00, or they close. And you gotta be early, or they won't
have any bread. And don't think of running out of bread on
Sunday...they aren't open.

But how I like this small town. Wouldn't trade for a mansion.

Spook...the happy

your neighbors house is about 1/8th inch tall

When you find yourself waving at people you pass on the dirt road as the rare occasion warrants some acknowledgement.
