[QUOTE="boondocks, post: 1293822, member: 20599"] We like it. That said, we do not have enough cattle for a full-time operation, having gotten a late start. Many in New York State do, though. It has some of the oldest and most-respected Angus herds in the country, for example. The pros are the stunning scenery, 4 seasons, mild summers, beautiful long autumns. Lots to do outdoors, Adirondacks in your back yard, hunting (if you're into that), fishing, maple syrup-making, kayaking/canoeing etc etc. Lots of interesting history (some of the key Revolutionary War sites are near us), quaint towns and good people, and a burgeoning farm-to-table and direct-to-consumer scene. Land varies a lot. Here's a sampling: [url=http://www.unitedcountry.com/search06/SearchResults.asp?SID=233489766&H=&AU=N&DA=N&Lcnt=&curpage=1]http://www.unitedcountry.com/search06/S ... &curpage=1[/url] One of the downsides is that the winters are sometimes not too bad, and other times quite trying. (We have a long, steep driveway which colors my view a bit). However, our herd has been bred for this climate and soldiers on very well, knock wood. Last year we were deep in snow by now; this year, not yet a flake. (Yeah, I've just cursed myself, having said that!). PM me if you want. [/QUOTE]
