Here's the garage at the cabin we would be living at if we ever were able to sell the farm.

Heading towards retirement and some medical issues for my wife.
Only own 18 acres of it now and run 30 anyway. Used to lease a bunch more until I called it quits a few years ago. Losing proposition, farming these days, unless you're very big.
 
Nice looking Garg Mike.

I know what you mean about wife's health. My wife had two strokes within a week three years ago. We were getting ready to sell out and move to a much more rural setting but, after the strokes we looked at things much differently.

I hope everything works out for you.

IMO being big does'nt pay any better than being small.You got to work smarter,not harder.keeping the costs down is the key,and only borrowing for what one really needs,not wants is my motto.
New equipment is def a no no.
Not to bragg,but I dont think i spend more than 60 grand on all my equipment combined.
1 cat,2 wheel loaders(1 small 1 big),3 tractors ,rd baler,rd bale picker,haybine and various other pieces for grain farming.The newest piece is at least 20 yrs old.
Heck,most people spend 50 grand on 1 small new tractor alone and may use it no more than 200 hrs a yr.:rolleyes5:
 
The best to you in what ever you decide. Looks like you'll have a nice to place to hide out if you move there. Nice looking wood splitter, too. I'd like to get my farm operation going again, but lots of miles between me and it, and hard to pencil out a way to do it.
