Oh crap, and I thought we had it bad...At least our property taxes can only rise some 1 to 2 percent a year and are around $1100/yr these days. Six large ones is a very tough bite indeed.

I always wondered in the midwest (Tornado Alley) that homes and buildings would be built semi underground to mitigate damage—is that a feasible idea for any of you living in Tornado Alley?

To get back to your 6K—is that currently in Florida or somewhere else?

BTW we have five acres with mobile and out buildings—garage, barn, two sheds.
