Yes...err, all of the above. Already live in a suburban setting but hate the traffic, ignorant people, etc. We use our mountain property as a getaway on weekends & vacations. Am on the grid, but am taking steps to be independant if something goes BOOM, or the government messes up. Plan to move there on a permanent basis in 10 yrs or less & enjoy retirement.
edit for speeling-lol

Depending on the real estate market, I will be retiring on my land or I will be retiring on the money I get from selling the property.
For now, it's a campsite. Next year I will have my cabin on the property. In 5 years I hope to have a small 3 bedroom house complete enough to live there full time and sell my city house
