SOLD!

After 21 years, I have sold my beloved AFrames on Jean Street.  They have taken very good care of Mike and me.  Quite the process, this real-estate stuff.  The closing for the AFrames was on Wednesday.  Today, we bought 80 acres with 2 houses, one airplane hanger, one huge shop, two barns, and farm equipment and have enough money left to begin planting and growing alfalfa.  It is really quite remarkable, the whole thing.  I am sad and happy and astounded. 

This is Mike's place.  Not sure if to call it a farm or a ranch, we have named it our "franch".  First priority is to get a crop in the field.  Alfalfa, once established, is productive for about six years.  The objective is to produce some good hay. 

Just on the other side of the Wyoming border, the place sits at the base of Tin Cup Pass just inside the Idaho line.  The past owners will stay at the main house while they decide their next move.  The other house, a smaller 1000 square foot house needs some work.  Priority number two. 

Here is a view, looking north.  Mike's Franch.  I think we did pretty darn good!
