After over 3 years of van life, I have finally found a little piece of desert to call home. I am so excited to share this place with you all, as well as all of the projects in the years to come!
Thank you so much for being a part of this community, much love to you!

Van Life is far from over! Chris and I will still be on the road for most of the coming years... but now I have a piece of desert to slowly transform into something that I have always dreamed of. I am SO excited to work with my hands again!! Love you all, thank you for being here 💛

Congratulations!!! When a place feels right you know. I just bought a place earlier this year. I was having so many emotions but things kept lining up. This was big purchase without my dad’s guidance he passed about 5 years ago. It’s such a serial feeling to walk out of the door and be like that’s it? Happy for all can’t wait to see how it all unfolds.

Congratulations Linnea! I recognize the excitement of this type of event, I bought my first property in 1989, a 118 acre old rocky farm near Cadott, WI. Over the 32 years that we owned it we planted over 100,000 trees, and grew our business and 3 kids there. Now, every time I drive by, I get a feeling of pride seeing the dense forest that we planted and nurtured. All the best to you as you create your bit of paradise on this land. Bob

When it comes to water you want to find the piece of land that has natural grasses the places that have more Sagebrush have less water. Look for the natural grasses even the deserts have water but it's not where the sagebrush is it's where the natural grasses are.

I am beyond happy for you, Linnea! This is the perfect next step. Your Dad is so proud of you! So happy the family is coming to be with you to enjoy this moment!! Congratulations! You are an inspiration. I’m 74 and remember when we women could only dream of such a thing! You deserve every blessing coming your way! Looking forward to sharing the journey with you!

I so appreciate that she added that! People don't seem to realize how not long ago, women weren't allowed to even purchase land, have a bank account, become educated, work, vote, etc. We were kept like property. Even our father's wealth wouldn't transfer to us, it had to go to the man we married. A lot of those men just married, took the money, and spent it - gambled it away, leaving the wife and mother bereft. At least that's what my POS g-grandfather did. Left us all in poverty by spending my g-grandmother's fortune. Sorry, tangent, but yeah, it means something, that mention.

I'll take the high mountain desert with the breathtaking views any day. My view is of the Selway Bitterroot wilderness. I'm about to rent out the house and hit the road in my Sprinter. The building up process definitely takes longer than what you think, LOL especially when you're older than dirt. Is fun to walk the property and have the dogs pick up a fresh shed left by the mule deer. I'm a well witch let me know if you need help
