My associate lives way out in the country.
She prefers it out there are she can do pretty much as she pleases and has truly few neighbors. She and her family have about 10 acres of land and the house sits truly far back from the main road. This is great with a few exceptions. Some of the up-to-date conveniences that everyone take for granted are not available. Being that far back there is no neighborhood water, cable or even natural gas that run to the house. She must depend upon a well for water. This is great as long as you have enough rain during the season. She also much depend on satellite for her television. The largest adjustment was the use of propane for heating the house. Living in neighborhood my associate and I never know about this. We are hooked into our local natural gas company and have a steady supply. Our boiler system simply works. My associate found that her Heating and A/C business had to make some adjustments when installing her up-to-date system. She obtained the house and wanted a newer, more efficient heater so she could avoid high heating bills. The Heating and A/C company was able to recommend the best system for her and hook it into the propane tank without a problem. They showed her how to monitor the system and know when she should order more fuel as well. It is beautiful out where she lives. You can see so multiple stars at night and it is peaceful as well. I care about to visit but would not want to live there. Having to monitor my fuel consumption would just add one more thing to keep track of.
