    Yes, That would be a wonderful dream come true!  

    My family would move there with me.

    My youngest granddaughter would take care of the horses.  Her sister would take care of the dogs.  I would grow the roses and the rest of the family would get busy with other chores.


  2. It'd take alot of work to manage a farm by yourself. Personally i'd rent it to friendly farmers cheap or sell it actually.

  3. I live in Wyoming and I would live on the ranch but really don't think I could run it. I love coaching and will be a teacher soon enough. I think that living out here is perfect but I never really liked the ranch life.

  4. I would. I was just thinking about this the other day and talking to my mother about it. It would take a lot of work but I would love to raise organic chickens, organic vegetables and an organic vineyard for wine here in California.

  5. i would do it. you are your own boss.

  6. you bet I would!

  7. Definitely YES, owning a piece of land that was inherited by someone who you love is an honor you should treasure and keep it and live there if you could.

  8. yes i would be on the farm and never come back i love the coutnry and ready for it now.

  9. Oh, wow, I'd love to live on a farm or ranch... as long as it's not in Coahuila, Mexico. Grandpa had a ranch there but, alas, they're suffering rough times. The relatives that have inherited it have had to sell parts off because of the severe drought and other losses.

    But here in the USA, if there's water then there's a way to make a living and I would love to get away from the 9to 5 grind and be more physically active. I'd actually enjoy baling hay and stuff like that, I crave physical activity most of the time.

  10. In a heart beat.

  11. Of course I would, thats the best option in todays world.

    I would also keep up with tech as a hobby but sure quit that 9-6 job.

  12. Only if the ranch already have a bunch of animals on it. I wanna ride a horse

  13. I was raised in farm country.  That's a lot of work and it's not 9-5 nor 5 days a week.  The livestock needs care 7 days and there's on-call 24 hours a day.

    What I always wanted to be, besides the heir to a huge fortune, was a "gentleman farmer."  There were a few where I was raised.  They just built nice houses on the farms, were retired or had professional careers, and leased the land to real farmers.

    They had the country life but not the hard, dirty work for long hours and small profit.

  14. Just as fast as one could say, Hee Haw.

    I might be movin' to Montana soon

    Just to raise me up a crop of

    Dental Floss

    Raisin' it up

    Waxen it down

    In a little white box

    That I can sell uptown

    By myself I wouldn't

    Have no boss,

    But I'd be raisin' my lonely

    Dental Floss

    Raisin' my lonely

    Dental Floss

    Well I just might grow me some bees

    But I'd leave the sweet stuff

    To somebody else . . . but then, on the other hand I would

    Keep the wax

    N' melt it down

    Pluck some Floss

    N' swish it aroun'

    I'd have me a crop

    An' it'd be on top (that's why I'm movin' to Montana) ..........
