I am back in Southern California after a quick trip to Missouri. While there we looked at I think ten properties in all (I lost count in the blur). In the end we bought a place that was not on any RE agents list. The owner had talked to me about buying it several times in the past several years. He wanted to sell then he did not. I thought it was not available until one day as I was gasing the car he drove up and we talked. He gave a price, we arranged to meet. and I bought it.

It is everything we wanted except the house is smaller that we wanted but that can be fixed. It is 80 acres, with a year round stream on the backside, mostly wooded with a piece in the center selectively logged six years ago. The house is two bedrooms one bath with a beautiful full length porch. The shop is 32 by 32 with 10 ft lean-tos on each side, one is a pull through, both are enclosed on three sides.

It is located about the middle of Ozark County about 15 miles north of Gainesville. Neighbors are people I have known and socialized with for several years now and are all good people. Mow for the hassle of moving.
