"Keep me aprised of how it goes."

I will.

That's wise, IMO. If enough people go rural again, that will lighten some of the economic and logistical pressures on all. I say welcome. There's more than enough "open space" in areas like mine for sure. Only the most spoiled and selfish people play the First Settler Syndrome games (regulating against others building on their own properties), and they are downright un-American with their putsches against property rights and dishonest efforts against local competitors (builders' rackets).

And yes, bear do love vegetable gardens--especially in treed areas. They can eat just about anything that we eat and more. ...haven't had any problem with bears breaking into my own test gardens, yet, though. I'll try to design a stand-alone solar panel/battery electric fence system for that, but it might end-up being a little too expensive.

We have some like that. They're the environmental wackos. One even trespassed on other's properties, and then calls the Fish and Game to file a 'violation' of some sort! We're all hoping she'll get her truck stuck in the snow - and we'll all drive by and wave. Or charge her $500 to pull her out!
