Baymule’s Journal

[Alaskan]

My sister in law and I were going to Crockett to eat lunch, were 5 miles from Crockett. I called on a listing and the real estate lady said she was going there now. I told SIL to turn around! A double wide on 25 acres with 2 ponds and nice pasture. Turned out, SIL knew the people and he rode me around on the back of his 4 wheeler so I could look at the land. A driveway cuts it in half, there is some new fence, field fence, and some old fence. No barn, but I haven’t looked at a place yet with a barn. The smaller side needs a fence on one side and has T-posts along the driveway but no wire.

I could build a small barn on the smaller side and after putting up fence, use it right away. The bigger side, with the 2ponds, needs cleaning the fence row, rolling up old wire, replacing some of the posts and will be a lot of work. Doable, but may take me awhile. I might could run a cross fence and use some of that side sooner.

I’ve decided to make them an offer on it. I’ll call the real estate lady this morning.

That one sounds great!

was artfully photographed and looked great in the listing pictures.

Glad you weren't an off-site buyer!


Woohoo!! More fencing!!?!. But grass, lots of grass. (Kind??) More land than you'll want in a few years. Glorious ponds! Big kitchen and a tub those grands will really like. . Great find. How soon can they close? I mean, you're still packed to go!

It’s a mix of Bahia, coastal Bermuda, and various weeds the sheep will snack on. I’d have to fence whatever I bought, this is cattle country, not sheep or goats. I hope there is some fish in the ponds, the little girls would love to catch fish! Closing is tentatively set for April 24. I’ll have to securely fence in an area for sheep and dogs and build maybe a 3 sided shed for them. I’m still packed to go, sheep and dogs come first!

House needs NOTHING done to it. I don’t like mobile home walls, so I’ll paint the whole thing. There is a add on utility room that I can put my washer/dryer in, and plenty of room for the 3 freezers.

Mother’s Day and my birthday are coming up, my kids need to buy me a porch swing!

Plans are to get a couple of horses. Probably not right away, but I want horses again.

It does look real nice. Grass looks real good... I am not familiar with your types of grass down there; but it sure is thick looking so ought to be good grazing. Definitely a step up with the amount of land and looking like the ground is better than the sugar sand you used to deal with.
Glad that you managed to find it and that they have accepted your offer. Once you get the knee fixed, you can afford to keep a horse too with all the grass with some good rotational grazing. Something to look forward to ....MOVING ......AGAIN !!!
