I won't ramble. For its advantages, I have to maintain it entirely at my own cost. Other than the scenery, it's the big benefit of living far out. Only thing piped in is electricity, and that sometimes goes out so I got a propane powered backup generator.

No econony of scale, and control comes at a cost.

I really hope things in NC improve but it must be tough. CA had a run of Republican governors and it was pretty awful. Much better now.
