I am buying this little 5 acre patch contract for deed, living in a 14x70 1985 mobile home. Barn is over 100 years old with lean to's attached. Anyhow, I can't get insurance anymore, trailer and barn are both too old. Barn itself OK, but lean to's need to go. 15 years is the oldest a trailer can be written, never mind we have updated a lot in it. By the time I get a new enuf trailer and all the changes to the barn I am looking at about 50K. I am also still going thru a battle with the road commissioner regarding drainage problems because he won't put a new culvert under the township road, would rather just leave me with one driveway instead of my circle drive and let the water run in front of the house, in effect shutting off access to the barn and pasture unless I spend the money to culvert it myself. With what I still owe and the money I will need to spend I think an existing stick built home may be cheaper in the long run. Won't elaborate on possible houses except to say I can buy 7.63 acres with a 3296 square ft house and steel building, or 40 acres with two Morton type buildings for only about $200 a month more. If I went the 40 acres I would need to possibly move a house there, it is currently a Morton with living quarters and the wife says she won't live that way. DOUG

If it's due to death, your feelings could be in disarray for days, months or even years. Even now after almost 4 years, I still miss my dad. I remember when I was a kid my dad sometimes would tuck my brother and I in at night and we would ask him questions about his childhood on the farm. To this day, it's some of the best stories I've ever heard. And now, I'm so glad that I asked those questions, and if I were a little smarter i
