You know the new American Dream where you live off the land and grow your own? Yeah, that's us. James and I have this wonderful (not realistic) dream of growing our own fruits and veggies, having an orchard, cows, chickens, pigs, goats and sustainable living. In order to do this we need some serious land. That land also needs to have a primo location for my moms trailer.
While we go from property to property we ask ourselves, is there a spot for the trailer? If there is, we like it more. If there's not we try and find the benefits of buying it. I am the type of person that has to talk about things right away. Many times I have texted my mom "We found a spot for the trailer!". She is to the point now she doesn't want to hear about it. This hurts me. I neeeeeeed to talk about these places, I have to get the excitement out of me so I can concentrate on the house. Once it's out of me I can see clearly. I can see why the house works or why it's actually whack. The secret garden house had a good spot in the woods. Our Campbell road house has a good spot in front of the woods. Several plots have been raw land and James fantasizes of all 4 of us living in the trailer. This is not a possibility. I will not have it. The Mill Creek house would have brought the property values down in the neighborhood. The double wide place already had a trailer on it. My moms trailer has acted as a great grounder for us. It puts us in perspective, makes us think about what we ultimately want and what we are willing to work with. We love the idea of this trailer surrounded by gardens and animals. We love the idea of our moms getting together and sewing things inside of it. We love the idea of a cute little playhouse for the whole family to enjoy.
