I grew up in the country in East Texas
Finally after 23 years of residential living we are headed to the country
Found a nice place on 10 acres with a stocked pond (catfish & crappie)
Nice 30x50 metal shop on slab with electrical
House has a metal roof
Active well for irrigating garden
Deer walking around in back part near the pond
Sits on a non pass thru county road. Just pass my drive the road ends with a circle turn around
Nearby neighbor has 100 acres & I just think we might become good friends

We're about 8 miles through the woods from Laneville, and I'm still too close to Houston.

Now if you can keep the guy that lives a couple minutes away out of your deer stand.

Congrats on the land purchase. Sounds a lot like our little place....minus the peaches. We have finally made the move out here permanently and living the dream. Be forewarned though....10 acres is a lot of work to maintain friend 😩
