Do you ever think about where you want to be in 5 or 10 years? I think about it a little too much. So I figure if I am going to think about it, I might as well write it down. Then the next step is to look at what I can do in the meantime to prepare.
Here is my wish list:
2-5 acres
Mountain view
Existing fruit orchard hopefully with apples, pears, peaches, plums, raspberries, blueberries, strawberries, figs, grapes, blackberries
Min 4 bedrooms, ideally 3 up and a 3 on lower floor for offices/ guests
3 rooms and rec room on lower floor for guests and every day use
Barn for 2 horses, sheep, goats
Chicken coop
Pond for ducks
Pasture
Greenhouse
Kitchen garden
Canning workshop and storage, cheese making space
Workshop for Kevin
Wood stove for some house heating and bread making (Vermont is one brand) in eating area of kitchen
radiant heat on main floor
Near Courtenay, BC
Okay, the next step is to look at components of the plan and see how I can prepare now. More to come!
