I agree, You can "get away". We did it, and living is better and cheaper.
One of the things you have to do to be successful is leave the big city
behind you-----don't try to take it with you. Learn to live with the land,
and accept the slower pace of life. It's far less convenient to live out in
the country, but the rewards make it well worth while. I watch deer browse
in the yard, enjoy the squirrels and chipmunks, feed the birds, and best of
all, don't have to listen to or smell cars driving by constantly. The
silence is often deafening. (If you can ignore the occasional rifle shot,
or the seemingly endless sound of a chain saw running).
