I live in a little town between Napoleon and Manchester. Really more of a village where I can see into the country from right here at the computer. My neighbor behind me is the only one who lives there year round and we don’t bother each other and we help each other out when we can.
My neighbor on the west is better than 200 yards away and lives in Florida for most of the year. The house on the other side is closer but he only stays a few days every so often. In front is the lake.
I get off and wander the state land all around here a couple times per month.
Lucky lucky you. Before he moved, a friend of mine had a lovely house in the country. I loved the drive over there and enjoyed the drive back. Fantastic route and I savored every minute of it.
