Got my cabbage, cabbage collards and broccoli in the ground this morning. That’s the small one behind the house. Still have 2 big fields to plant.

No Troy. After I checked the place out in person, and having a home inspection done, we decided to withdraw our bid. Too many things to fix, or update. I'm not really looking for a fixer upper, and the access to the yard, towing a boat trailer, would be difficult at best. We'll keep looking, and in the meantime start clearing out 40yrs worth of "stuff" we have accumulated here.

That’s not the shed. I don’t really use that one. Remember I had a bigger one built about 3 years ago. When I retired I went out to put some stuff in and there was 3 big snakes in there. I threw some sulfur in there closed it and left it closed for 3 hot days. I went back and they were gone. I have not open it since then.

Don’t blame you. I know in my area there’s a lot homes for sale. New and old. Check the repo and tax lends on where you want to move to.

Yeah pretty much Troy. We have some friends around Lake Marion, and a few more out at Murrells Inlet. The wife wants to be near Marion.

Got it.You probably will come out better to find you an empty lot near Lake Marion and build or buy a double wide. A while back I saw a lot for 55k with the septic tank and water already there. Someone loan didn’t go through so the real estate company wanted to drop it off for that price.

Well, Troy... I just got home and ventured into the hothouse.. I've got 4 varieties of Tomatoes, Some Broccoli, Cauliflower, and Cabbage starting to pop up!! I'll give them another looksie tomorrow morning and move some cell packs around to get them under the lights to keep them from getting leggy. Peppers shouldn't be too far behind.
Woo Hoo!!! ... 1st signs of life for my garden!!

I've looked at a few nice lots too Ed, but the affordable ones are away from the lake, and populated areas. The wife doesn't want to be isolated that much, so the search goes on.
