Default Bullying desguised (badly) as precaution (long reply to Jay H.)

Possibility of a fly-in B&B?

We *are* discussing moving into the inn (essentially a fly-in B&B, on
steroids) while we look for the "perfect" home with enough land for a
landing strip.

Trouble is, I'm afraid we'd get so used to it, that we'd never leave. It
makes SO much financial sense, but... We really like being able to "go
home" at the end of the day, and leave the place in the able hands of our
night manager, who does live on-site.

We'll see how it unfolds. We've got lots of irons in the fire right now...

You'd be going farther away from the airport.

Only until we found the perfect piece of land upon which to build our
*own* airport!

That's great to be able to buy enough land for a runway. Where I live it
just seems like every year there are more people trying to buy the same land
that the prices have gone beyond buying an "airport". How much longer
before the overflow reaches your area?

Um, well, have you flown over the Midwest? Outside of the cities --
which are relatively few, and far between -- there are thousands of
square miles of farmland and forest.

I don't think we'll be worrying about "urban sprawl" in the Midwest for
a few hundred years, soonest.

And by then the urban folks will be gone as they will have starved from
lack of food from the farms in the midwest that are no longer... :-)
