Estate Auctions
« on: October 24, 2017, 12:49:37 PM »
You guys ever been to one? These things are intense. My family sold the farm they grew up on yesterday. 468 acres of land and a house in the flint hills that sits on the Santa Fe Trail. We've constantly found old wagon tracks on the property, arrowheads, and even a meteoroid that sold for some decent $ and was on some show. My family had that property for over 80 years. Grandpa bought it for 30K and what they ended up selling all that for was amazing in comparison. Anyways, it was probably the most emotional thing I've ever had to witness with my family (non-medical). So many hayseeds were at that auction trying to steal it. Thank god for rich game hunters and farmers.

Estate auctions are interesting and I have been to a few. Never bid on anything, estate sales though are more my speed

There are dead wasps inside figs. You should be careful.

How come you didn’t move out to the WackyFamily homestead and take it over Wacky?

oh man, i'd suck so bad at that. My Uncle just retired from John Deere. He thought about doing it, but they also just bought a farm out in Oregon and he's farming hops to make beer and some other stuff.  :fatty: We're all city folk now.
