hills, oaks, and freshly cut grass

It may have taken 4 years, but I finally did it. I found my piece of country land in the Texas Hill Country that I can finally call my own. Not only did I accomplish the dream, but I also fulfilled a few other bucket list items along the way, which I’ll share through future posts on this site. Most importantly, I’m going to share the tricks and experiences I went through, including the lessons learned when searching for rural land.

Now, with the land purchased, a new set of experiences are about to emerge: What can I do with it? What are my plans? How do I read my survey/land plat? What kind of fence should I build? Do I want a small cabin or home? What can I grow out here? What about animals? Power…what about electricity? Rain water harvesting? As you can see…the adventure is just beginning…
