About the mountain
We've decided to purchase a plot of land (4 acres) next to Grandma Haslem's mountain property. It's the wooded hillside up behind our old fire pit. The end of the zip line is on this property. Yer mom's uncle Ken Rasmussen owns it and wants to sell it. He'll give it to us for $15,000/acre (it's 4 acres). Land up there right now is going for about $20k/acre so it's a good deal. Our plans are to hold onto it as an investment and use it in our old age (tomorrow?) if we have to, but hopefully not have to. It will keep someone from buying it and plunking a cabin right there next to our place at Grandma's. Hopefully it will be a place for cousins to gather and have water fights etc. like some kids I remember from a long time ago.

The lot we are buying is # 570060120. Granpa Haslem's lot is 113 Keith is buying 119. He and Jake and Ryan already own 87. For perspective, the corner where lots 120 and 119 meet lot 113 is right next to the road, in the stream, just north of Grandpa's old storage shack. Our old firepit and carved trees "Kim's a pain" are on lot 120, the one we're buying. The southern junction of where lot 87 meets lot 113 is the lightning rod on the road.

This is a picture of it from the air. You should see all the empty cans of red, green, and blue spray paint I have from doing this! (click on it to make it larger)
