    Buying Land

    After living years in Arkansas, visiting Michigan during black fly season and being caught by a swarm of sand fleas on an island off the coast of Georgia the south west is wonderful even though every drop of rain has a bug in it, it doesn’t rain very often!

    Buying Land

    In some areas in some states where they have access to small planes or helicopters. Drones are presently used in rescue operations and I don’t doubt they will eventually be used if the problem of over use increases. Biggest limitation now is lack of people to enforce the rules.

    Cheap a/c

This is possible in most motorhomes with generators as well. Best and cheapest way is to live and stay in moderately cool climates so AC isn’t...
