            congrats!!! you have my dream house!!!! small place to live in for the first little bit, lots of land, and in the future you have an option to build a house or save up for a modular one.. idk about the area but it will probably be worth substantially more in the future so u can borrow against your equity to help bulid a house faster... your set!

                          That's so cool Wes. Festivas and compounds go together!

                          If you have a meet, I'll probably come. I'm pretty rural by nature.

                            Make sure you build a small tornado shelter first. Then build the house. I would love to drive down for a Festiva meet. Nice property.

                              Good idea! Only maybe build one large enough for your family and at least one Festiva. You could then build revetments for your other cars up top. Don't let them congregate near each other. Spread 'em out like fighter planes in a war zone.

                              One type of revetment:

                                Got alot done over the past two weekends. New siding, more burning, new farm truck, moving the trailer. Wish i had a vid of the truck moving it. Still have to flip the blue trailer over to burn it and keep it away from the fence line, and to save the axles maybe...

                                We shall see. More photos
