It's hard to blame the original owners - the amount they can make is staggering.Ruralityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06616461213179182660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12033578.post-1119890029249224632005-06-27T11:33:00.000-05:002005-06-27T11:33:00.000-05:00This picture is really worth 1000 words.

We've similarly purchased a place for retirement, not large as yours but it is on top of a mountain in the Ouchita range outside Hot Springs, Arkansas. We're hoping that progress won't crawl up the mountainside. - Regards, SuzanneSuzannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06475380451527801666noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12033578.post-1119700217281015092005-06-25T06:50:00.000-05:002005-06-25T06:50:00.000-05:00This could have been taken just down the street fr...This could have been taken just down the street from my suburban neighborhood. We, too, are experiencing the pains of rapid growth here in Kansas City, and a bucolic space such as you show in your photo won't last long in the face of "progress." All the more reason why L and I found the most isolated piece of rural forest we could for our eventual retreat.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12033578.post-1119640617674630222005-06-24T14:16:00.000-05:002005-06-24T14:16:00.000-05:00After what the out-of-control Supreme Court did ye...After what the out-of-control Supreme Court did yesterday, everyone is at risk. I thought one of the reason's we founded this country was so that individuals would have the ability to own property without the fear of a government seizing it. If they are going to allow this, they should make developers pay the person pushed out of their homes and off their land..2 to 3 times the land's worth based on worth after development.srphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11751987787364198318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12033578.post-1119624845149651742005-06-24T09:54:00.000-05:002005-06-24T09:54:00.000-05:00It's like that around here too.

I cannot imagine they need THAT many ware houses.<BR/><BR/>There's a beautiful sandstone house in Naperville, that used to be a small farm. The residents left it within the last year. I have no idea what they're going to do with it, but it's a beauty. And surrounded by half million dollar homes and townhomes. <BR/><BR/>All in the name of progress. <BR/><BR/>I'll see if I can get a picture and I'll share.KatKit13https://www.blogger.com/profile/05624408996752444339noreply@blogger.com
