let's just hope the Misses doesn't see you and figure out why the flowers are dying!!!

I tell the wife I am watering her plants, giving them some N, saving water from the well, AND saving money since we don't have to pay for the power to pull the water from the well.....

I just get The Look. :D

I live on just 2 acres but, the beauty in these 2 acres is that only 2 or 3 cars pass by, on average, each hour.

Very peaceful and quiet where I live and I enjoy it as much as the birds do.:thumbsup:

We live about a mile from a major road. During the day you mostly cannot hear traffic but you can at night. Amazing how far the sound of the tires hitting the expansion joints travels.

There is a road about a 1/4 mile behind us and we hear it's traffic but it does not get many cars.

One of the first properties we looked to buy was about 2 miles from a major road out in the middle of now where. We could hear the traffic.

At our place I have seen satellites from time to time. And some nights you can just make out the Milky Way. Every once in awhile, when out watering the plants late at night, I will see a shooting star. Sometimes I will see military planes flying in formation heading east. Usually with pretty good separation. The are flying ENE which makes me wonder if they are B52's from Barksdale back in LA.

It is very hard to NOT hear humanity at our place. I heard a story years ago about a guy who records animal sounds. It was difficult for him to record ONLY the animal sound without any human made sound.

Approx 60 acres of woods with 1.25 miles of river frontage.

For sale if anyone is interested and I'll throw in an orange toy to help maintain the property :)

We live on 10+ acres about 10 miles from a town of 100,000. The glow in the sky from that direction makes the stars hard to see unless you get behind the house. Then the big and little dippers are easy to find. Way too much road noise to suit me, from a major highway a mile south and then the Interstate a mile past that. The road out front is also a lot busier than it was when we bought. We also hear the train sometimes, even though the tracks are at least ten miles away. The sound probably comes up valleys that go all the way down to the Missouri River where the tracks are. I don't mind the train. At least my neighbors are both pretty far off and mostly quiet. The folks behind us keep a varying pack of dogs, as near as I can tell, and they will sometimes raise Caine all day or night, but they are far enough off that it is a minor annoyance. There are a few of the big security lights around, but the trees keep most of that light from bothering us. If we sit out back on the patio, with the house between us and the road, and also the nearby town, on moonless nights it is dark enough to let me think I'm really out in the boonies....if I work at it!

When I hit the lottery I'm going to find some property completely surrounded by state or government forest or park or something. Many years ago I had the opportunity to buy about 100 acres of land like that in the East Tennessee mountains. The road not taken can be a pain to contemplate sometimes.

Our house is about halfway between two small towns. Each is probably 8 miles away as the crow flies. It is very easy to see the glow of their lights on the horizon. It takes surprising little light pollution to mess up the night sky.
