Living in an RV eh? One of my uncles lives in a camper, actually, so a home like that isn't unusual to me.

Kudos for trying something a but different from the norm and putting work in like that, though.

I figured, why not? I can live in small places. That motorhome will be fine by me to live in. And I've made a wager for my sense of humor.

Should anybody, ever find me and choose to stay with me, then I'm building the house so that an extension will be easy to build alongside. Essentially, should life take me up on my wager, the space with the motorhome will become a garage. But it's not a wager that will be won anytime soon.

Man I wish I had some land.

It's no party even up here. I only got, or am going to have that because my Uncle wants to keep it in the family. I'm helping to push everyone together so that we can work together and help one another. Searching for land on my own hasn't been a party because either rich fucks buy enormous amounts of land for themselves, or old rich fucks buy themselves retirement homes up here.

There's no land for the poor unless you've got some luck like me and a family that actually cares for one another.

I'm just saying I wish I had land.

I'll get some one day.

And I'm saying it's a bitch to find, and a bitch to pay for. You've gotta be ready to play your hand fast if you ever do.

Wouldn't have it any other way. I'll appreciate it all the more if I make it that far.

Gentlemen. Been doing some talking lately. This year is going to be tough. Extremely busy. Busy enough that I doubt I'd be able to build my place alone or even with help.

Plus, somebody is coming over to visit here later in the year. So I'm going to move my motor home around to accomodate them.

I'm going to build the initial roof still, but put up no walls or use no insulation. Assemble it with screws so that it can be dissassembled and transported when the house itself is ready to be built.
