County tag you for those extra trailers or the pit, Jim? <br /><br />Solar improvements and trees are not counted towards property tax in Nevada.<br /> <br />I'm thinking of driving out next April and spending 3-4 weeks. Plant a few drought hardy trees and maybe drop off some stuff.

It is worth checking out.<br /><br />I'm mostly a conservative Christian asshat (in your words) but even I got an erection at the sight of 'her'. <br /><br />This could be the future of sex relations. At least until the feminists declare Roxxy a 'person'. Then the rape-laws would apply.<br /><br />Trust me. Check out True Companion dot com.

Build a wooden deck and cover it with plastic and bury it. 3 trusses = 14 deep by ?? long. The one here is 21x28 using 4 trusses. As time permits... dig underneath the trusses to give it a "basement".

And no, we aren't chained to keep us from running away LOL.<br /><br />The problem is on how you guys sell the primitive living to your spouses. I would recommend using 'Little House on the Prairie' as your selling point as opposed to caveman. Us women are suckers for Little House. <br /><br />So do your best Charles Ingalls impression and go find yourself a woman!!<br /><br />Idaho HomesteaderAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-23171773062283477632014-08-07T13:57:01.874-07:002014-08-07T13:57:01.874-07:00My lovely wife actually loves living in a tent, fo...My lovely wife actually loves living in a tent, for months at a time. Yes, she's a rare one. She has two minimums in a tent: no see um screens and a full floor so all the critters can be on the other side of the zippers. Another nice thing is an attached screen room big enough for a couple a chairs. It makes a place for leaving wet and muddy clothes and shoes.

Yes, she is a sex-bot and costs over a thousand dollars but just think of 'her' as part of your initial purchase price of the land.<br /><br />It would be a tough sell to most other ladies. For you, Jim, you could prop her up in the window of your RV with a Lee Enfield while you're away to scare off intruders!<br /><br />I believe you can choose Roxxy's particulars right down to her toenail paint color. Hell, if she could cook and clean it would cause a catastrophic drop in human procreation. The Perfect (junk-land) Companion! And the only woman who will speak only nice things to you and seek to 'fulfill' you.<br /><br />I'm only half joking about this. I was astonished to find out about 'her' on the inter-web. I thought only crappy plastic blow-up dolls existed from my one trip to a porn shop 30 years ago. I guess the world is starting to pass me by.

Husband and I had zero construction experience when we built our house. When in doubt put in a few extra nails. <br /><br />We also hired a neighbor who had built his own cabin to give us a few pointers but with all the how-to YouTube videos out there, you probably won't need to do that.<br /><br />If you have the $$, hire a company to put up a metal pole building shell on your property. That's what we did. Use it for your shelter until you get your home built. After the move, you have a nice shop, barn or storage area. Pole buildings don't usually have much (if any) insulation but you can always add some if needed.<br /><br />Don't forget to check the local zoning rules before you buy your junk land. You want little to no laws so you can build cheap and at your leisure.<br /><br />Idaho HomesteaderAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-90876135498085657802014-08-07T07:23:38.733-07:002014-08-07T07:23:38.733-07:00I wouldn't piss away any money on a tent for j...I wouldn't piss away any money on a tent for junk land.
