Dave, my wife and I have said that so many times since last August it's not even funny! Our family as a whole has reaped such benefits from it that we can't begin to measure them. God seriously blessed us with bringing us to a point where we found it and were in position to buy. We thank Him every time we go out there. I absolutely agree about the kids - it has opened up a whole new world to them, learning about the outdoors, learning about the fun of spending your days running in the woods, climbing trees, hiking, exploring and finding nature's amazing treasures, visiting neighbors (something we don't dare do here in town, sadly), and just being independent. And we don't have a worry about them. They all got whistles for Christmas and they carry one with them so if they get into trouble we'll know and can come to them. But they've all really begun learning the layout of the property, especially in the woods, and they just go and cruise around on their own all day. Truly awesome!
