What does off grid mean?

probably that the land has it's own power source (solar, wind, etc).

I'm gonna call you out on the second largest freshwater lake unless it's the second largest freshwater lake in Washington or something or second largest freshwater damed lake...cuz last I checked I'm surrounded by some of the largest lakes in the world(living in Michigan...)

Otherwise, nice place if you like living in the boonies...

Disregard the debris on the picture-need to clean the Nikon.

You have a bit of a junkyard going there. Imagine the MacGyver like projects you could come up with.

Is that the house in Coulee pic? Looks like a shack.

 

[weirdichi]

You mentioned Missoula and I thought you were referring to my hometown back in Montana.

There is $10000 in escrow just incase they don't take their crap off the property-though there is a D4, older AliceChalmers tractor and a 28' cabin cruiser that I'm asking about.

Rogo

any members of the FREEMEN live out there?

I don't think so-unless the dryland farmer living a half mile away is a Freeman .

This property is 30 miles from my Computer shop-so I'll be living there and commuting.

looks so cold!

It was actually 65 when those pictures were taken. It's actually desert and damn hot-the winters are changing and becoming rather mild. 15 years ago normal winter temps were -10 to -20 now we have maybe 4 days of subzero temperatures.

I was thinking the same thing and was starting to get confused about large lakes.

I was thinking of the Pacific northwest! Great Lakes

I do enjoy solitude-I will enjoy the boonies

Yea the solitude is nice, my family owns a small house and 125 acres of land in western Michigan with nothing around except forest and lakes...I love it up there and somewhat envy you that you can live there all the time

Build a runway and I'll stop by. I need about 2000' without obstructions at that elevation.

 

[Rogodin2]

Plenty of room for a runway

New pic of Dry Falls-this is what you're looking at off the deck-though you don't see the lake itself.

Trade you my home for yours?

Really nice, love the lake there, watch out for snakes and scorpions though

Pics?

I am going to grow Spelt on the 20 acres.

[tasmanian]

I lived probably 75 miles away from you. Love it up there but where you are is soo damn dry and deserty.

 

[Rogodin2]

Where did you live Tas??

If you grow up in the desert the forest seems sordid.

That's my take. I lived in Eugene and Seattle for years but they didn't ever feel like home.

Rogo

 

[IEC]

Nice, that's less than my parents paid for a small townhome near Portland, OR

My X lives in Oregon-she can't find property that her new husband and herself can afford. I know that the WV is beautiful, but without backing you can't buy land there.

This part of washington hasn't been seen yet-though Paul Allen purchase all of the West side of Soap Lake. Intel, Intuit, Yahoo, and Microsoft have purchased land and are building data centers 40 miles south of this land.

[Rogodin2]

I'm going to grow spelt and cantilina.

Wow...grew up in Spokane, lived in Connell & the metropolis of Steptoe for a couple of years...haven't been in your part of the world in a LONG time, (although I DID drive thru Moses Lake in 05) used to fish Sprague Lake every year a couple of times...Worked at Grand Coulee when I was an apprentice, (mid-70's)...

I lived in hunters right below coleville. Now i live in portland and i miss it. All this rain really sucks.

You wouldn't believe what is happening here.

Microsoft just built the largest Data Center in the United States on property where I used to harvest beans, wheat, and corn. Intuit, Yahoo, and Intel are building here too.

Intel bought 2000 acres just east of the Moses Lake Internation airport for a new fab plant.

Property values here are going crazy. I don't own the building that I have my shop in and my landlord won't sell ( I asked two weeks ago).
