    Well after living in Illinois the past 20 years I'm finally able to move and buy my dream house. So I did just that .I bought a 4bd house with a guest house on 53 great acres in the great state on Minnesota I'll be fully moved in on the 9th and its fully paid off. I can't wait the property is perfect and I'm 2 blocks from a great walleye lake my 3 kids can hunt and ride there bikes or 4 wheelers 2 blocks to fish all day. I'm still in shock and can't really believe it yet it feels like a dream I just thank god every day for being this lucky. I'm so excited to set up the property for hunting I can't wait. The property that has 242 on it is now mine ONX maps needs to update already lol the road that's horizontal is 2 blocks and ends at the lake. The 2 spots are hay fields but I'm growing beans or radishes instead now to pull every deer to my property. the 9th can't come soon enough lol. Screenshot_20180327-085205_onX%20Hunt.jpg

    It's only 53 acres but they also own the 25 acres across the street from me and I'm trying to get them to sell that to me also lol. I love Minnesota if I shoot a deer and it runs into neighboring property its the law to go get it no permission required lol I can't wait I hung 3 cams already.
