We're not that isolated, just a small farm out in the middle of nowhere; part hill country, part bottom land.

The property had electricity from the late 30's until the early 50's. After my great-grandfather died, my grandfather received an electric bill for $2 with no usage.

The REMC told him that this was a "connection" fee and that he had to pay it if he wanted to be connected to the grid, so Grandpa solved the problem. No one lived here until I retired a few years ago and I the figired that the rule never to cross my grandfather still applied.

Great story! I live in southern Indiana and have been to a lot of places. I’m a caver for close to 40 years, if you could tell by my handle. I’ve been to a lot of places looking for caves. Some of the property, there are not many roads, such as Hoosier National Forest and the other state forests. Enjoy your property!

You come from a strong family. I hope you have lots of progeny.

Rom 13:8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
