I’d be happy with a cabin in the woods, far from the madness.
I’ve thought about, if I had the money, to buy an acreage or something. Get away from people. :)
But I’ve thought about it and mowing all summer long or shovelling mile-long driveways in the winter really don’t appeal to me, though I’d love to garden.
For me, the comromise is that my patio would be quite the botanical garden, while I live in my condo would allow me to do my thing.
