Wish me luck,,,
 

Made an offer today on a farm here in Ohio. :) 27 acres, all pasture. Got my barn builder all lined up and ready to go. Got Ramm fence lined up and ready to go. Whooooooo-hoooooooooo!!!

Best of Luck, largo1! I assume you'll have some critters to "mow' that land?:)

well, then i wish you luck!!

Good luck Largo! I am jealous! I want to see pics when you get them. :)

Thanks for all the good wishes!!! I got the farm. Very exciting. The house needs a little bit of work, but not much. I will be re-fencing as soon as I close. I'm putting in Ramm vinyl fence, 3 rails of white down the long drive and across the front of the property. It will not only be very horse-safe, but also very "pretty"!!

Yaaahooooo!!
I'm betting a Street Sense/No Biz exacta.

Congrats largo1! Wishing you the best....now that you've bought the farm! No No...I mean...Hoping for the best for you!:)

Congrats on getting it! Good luck to you and your horses. Have you thought of a stable name yet?

Hooray, largo; that's awesome. Please post pix when you have time to take them.

Completely jealous!

Good for you -- I's love to see pictures too when you get a chance.

Good luck Largo!

Make sure you reserve stall space for Morty.

Luckily, he doesn't need much space.

Hey, if you lived in the Cozy Dooryard, you wouldn't need much space either. :p

congrats!! a bit of work, can turn into a lot of work. remember, if you hire anyone, get lots of references and everything in writing! and don't pay all up front!

I am curious too. Got enough room to put in a couple of horse stalls and get some low-end starters at Beulah?

Hay thanks for all the good wishes, guys!! The farm is in Warsaw, Ohio, which is about 60 miles north of Columbus. Its actually in a *tiny* little town(I use that term loosely!) called West Bedford. West Bedford consists of exactly ONE building, a deli/bakery/general store with ONE gas pump. I will be building a 6 stall barn in August. I have 4 horses and all of mine will be turned out with a run-in shed 99% of the time, so I will be taking racehorse layups. Thought I'd try to advertise at Scioto Downs first; Standardbreds are easier to take care of then Thoroughbreds(at least that has been my experience)I will post some pix as soon as I can. I don't have my closing date yet and the people currently living there are being evicted and are not real happy about me hanging around. As soon as I close I will be having new fencing installed. Haven't picked a farm name yet. Was going to name it "Magnolia Farm", but then any endurance horses I raised and wanted to have my farm name would be "MF whatever". Thought about "Willow Tree Farm", but then they'd be "WTF whatever". Oh well, something(not x-rated) will come to me!!

Later,
Suzanne(I had SS, but WTF happened to NoBiz?? No excuses there)
