I am blessed because in 2016 after 10 years of praying and hoping and planning and dreaming we retired and sold almost everything and moved to some property that's been in Steve's family since the 1980s. We bought it from his brother who inherited it when their dad died. We are doing the entire development of this property without borrowing money and without going into debt! It's taking longer to do things now because of the virus and no one can come travel up here to help us build. So Steve's done it all by himself! We've hired a couple of contractors to do the land clearing, cut some trees and saw our logs into lumber but otherwise he's done it all! We have a small cabin that will eventually be a guest cabin. Sometime in the next year we'll be moving into a 1500 sq ft house that will be designed and built by Steve. It's going to be amazing! We have everything we need to finish it including the appliances but it just takes time to get it all done.

We have 3 acres on a saltwater lagoon in Southeast Alaska on Prince of Wales Island in a town called Hollis. It's about 250 people. We're 25 miles across a mountain pass from the nearest store. We are so very happy here! Much better than the 20 year rat race in South Florida!
