When I look at houses, it’s really the hunting camps that appeal to me but few are close enough to work. You know that red painted red plywood dry cabin in the woods with an outhouse and maybe a few solar panels. No central heat, just a woodstove. And indoor plumbing just somehow Jerry-rigged together.

I have the money, I could buy a hunting cabin if I wanted to. Maybe I should have looked more at that cabin on acerage that was available in Rennselaerville but has long since sold. But new properties keep popping up. But could I even live there full time? Or would I have to continue to rent a dump in the city for weekdays? And do I want to buy in New York State and be tighted to the shit government and the bad gun laws?
