Dr. Mabuse et al,
Most of those questions I've had since moving to sort-of the country in 2003 have been answered by neighbors. That's truly the best argument for living out here. The people help each other. I canceled AAA in 2004 because they would only believe the roads were plowed if the DOT told them so. We (someone with a tractor) plow our own roads. I got a neighbor to help with my car and haven't considered paying for roadside assistance since. Get to know your neighbors, especially if they have been there a while. And stock up on their favorite drinks. It's better than our soon-to-be worthless currency. Posted by: Catherine at February 06, 2021 09:34 AM (89Sgd) 85

The nice thing about country living: No need to pay 'sewer rents' every three months, or a water bill every three months. That adds up over the years to a huge pile of money. About once every decade you'll have to replace your well pump, still cheaper then a utility. But you have to 'do your homework' about maintaining those systems and never abuse them. It can be extremely costly to have to replace a drain field because you (or prior owner) filled it with grease - which won't allow proper leeching of effluent into the ground.

Best place I've ever lived. My husband and I raised our family there and I love every minute of it. When you are on a well, it is best if you have a generator in case the power goes out. If you buy a place with septic, make sure the tank is cleaned out before you move in. Also--be sure you have internet access before you buy. The county I lived in did a much better job of clearing the roads than the large city I live in now. Posted by: Ladyl, Insurrectionist at February 06, 2021 09:35 AM (TdMsT) 88

I lived in the boonies for several years. The well ran itself, the county plowed roads. I had high speed internet, but I know that can be a challenge in some places. When the power goes out yeah you cant use the pump so you own a generator. And stock up a few gallons of water. I have no idea what a sumo pump does, never had one. It really is no big deal.

Around here, there are three levels of road clearance.
The State Roads are cleared by the State DOT. The County roads are cleared by the County Public Works team. Township roads are mostly gravel, some dirt or millings, and these are cleared by either the Township or a private contractor. Or you can be your own snowplow.

Thanks for the great advice! I agree that asking neighbors is probably the best and most direct source for this sort of information. I've always been impressed by how ready people are to help when I make my little day trips out to the country. Someone once told me that all people enjoy sharing skills or information that they know; asking is often all it takes, and both sides get something good out of it. (Not that that should be abused, of course. Nobody likes a person who's just helpless all the time and a burden on other people.)

Posted by: Joe XiDen at February 06, 2021 09:46 AM Yes, but 'depth to water' is key. My well pump is about 190 feet down, but I can see water at about 20 feet down. If it was only six or eight feet to water (a high water table) I could have a problem in my lower level. The county comes out every couple years and measures my well as well as hundreds other as part of a county wide assessment for growth purposes.

I worked for NOAA, the parent agency for the National Weather Service. The outfit I was in used some of their data, and fed into NWS... mostly sea water temps, and other oceanic related data.

whenever our smoke alarm goes off, I just pop it off the ceiling and pull the battery out, and then figure it out in the morning if I don't smell smoke. Doesn't happen much, except one night. I had a good friend who loved tinkering with electronics, even as a boy he'd pull apart smoke detectors and fiddle with them, figuring out how they worked. He died tragically, and I was thinking about him a lot. That night the smoke detector kept first giving low battery "beeps" (even with a knew battery) and then went off a couple of times for no reason. Never happened again like that.

Our undisclosed location used to have a well. I believe it was about 85 feet to water, which sounds correct as we're on a hill some 80 feet above the Ohio River.
Unfourtantly, the well was contaminated with C-8, a chemical compound and known cancer risk that is the result of polymer manufacturing IIRC. The movie "Dark Waters" was about this issue. Posted by: Martini Farmer - Now a Pirate, Hoisting the Black Flag at February 06, 2021 10:07 AM (3H9h1) 187
I keep thinking how nice it would be to live in the country, but then I realize that I don't know anything at all about how to do it. Who ploughs the snow off the country roads in the winter? How do you run a well? Can it operate if the electricity goes out? What's the deal with sump pumps? Everyone seems to have them - do properties flood every spring? How do you operate a septic tank? So many questions... Is there some online course on "An Idiot's Guide to Moving to the Country?" I could look up?
Posted by: Dr. Mabuse at February 06, 2021 09:23 AM (dVgJw) BTDT. If you are on a school bus route, it gets plowed, mostly, at least in pre-covid times. Smart to own a high-clearance 4X4, like a pickup or Suburban, that can negotiate a foot of snow, and the odd deeper drift. My well pump runs on electricity, as does the pressure system that distributes the water around the house. You need to have a backup generator. When power goes out, it can be hours to get restored. Sump pumps? Mostly on an as-needed basis. Can surface water or ground water find its way into your basement? Then you want a sump pump. If you have one, good idea to make it run periodically, (continued) Posted by: Alberta Oil Peon at February 06, 2021 10:07 AM (mzC78) 188

...to ensure that it will run when it is needed. Neglected, they might become stuck. Properly-installed septic tank systems are pretty much trouble-free, and don't need to be "operated". Don't flush anything that won't break down, don't use a garbage disposal in your sink.

And another thing to keep in mind if you choose to live out in the country. You will need to keep a certain amount of food and medicine stores on hand in case of emergency. We had a 100-year flood one year that washed out roads and bridges in the area. Thankfully, we were well prepared when we were not able to leave our home for nearly a week. It took the county that long to build temporary road structures for public use. And this was before folks were working from home!

I hate septic systems. That probably stems from one particular family reunion/holiday at a country house when, one evening, the septic system clogged and everything started backing up. Father in law said "wait I have a cleanout!" so the men in the family, armed with flashlights and shovels, went out to fix the trouble.
dug it up, opened it up, and out flowed the effluent, with one giant brown log riding the crest of the wave. One brother in law spotlighted it and said "gawd! look at the size of that thing!" while everyone laughed. Then he turned his light on me and said "YOU were the last one on the toilet before this happened, weren't you? YOU clogged the whole house up!!!" There I stood, spotlighted and surrounded by accusers. Talk about a walk of shame. I hate septic systems. Posted by: Tom Servo at February 06, 2021 10:24 AM (V2Yro) 256

Father in law said "wait I have a cleanout!" so the men in the family, armed with flashlights and shovels, went out to fix the trouble.
dug it up, opened it up, and out flowed the effluent, with one giant brown log riding the crest of the wave. One brother in law spotlighted it and said "gawd! look at the size of that thing!" while everyone laughed. Then he turned his light on me and said "YOU were the last one on the toilet before this happened, weren't you? YOU clogged the whole house up!!!" There I stood, spotlighted and surrounded by accusers. Talk about a walk of shame.

The house I lived in for 10 years in Grand Rapids had a septic tank and a garbage disposal in the sink. It wasn't until years later that I was informed that you can't have that sort of thing....
Posted by: hogmartin After my folks' divorce, Dad moved to this old rural bunker --where Milady and I now live. The neighbor-tenant (rents the pasture now, lives in the guardhouse (heh)) tried to tell Dad it was not a good idea to install a garbage disposal on the kitchen sink. He did anyway. Decades later, when Milady and I began trying to salvage the much-deteriorated house, we found the kitchen sink, and only that sink, drained west to ... what we found was basically just a simple 3'x3' concrete box in the ground! Could've overfilled that sucker real quick. I have now lived to be nearly twenty years older than Dad ever got to be. Gives a certain perspective on age and wisdom...

Posted by: Braenyard, Patriot dog at February 06, 2021 10:55 AM (erddA) One of those things I didn't calculate, in making the decision to move out of the big city, into the sticks (sort of), was the cost of utilities. It might have something to do with the distance it has to travel, but my sewer bills are in the 20s. My water.. in the 20s. Energy... as high as the 90s in the middle of winter, as low as.. the 20s in warm/dry months. It becomes quite clear that utilities cost more in big cities, in large part, due to the graft.

Septic systems have to be pumped because building codes require oversized ones. They act like holding tanks. Properly sized and managed systems don't have to be pumped.
And my 95 Mazda 626 did just fine in the snow. One night, I followed the snow plow home. I had studded tires but no chains. Plow was all over the place. He finally turned off and I drove two miles of unplowed roads to get home. It was up to the top of the wheel well but the car did fine. Old VW bugs do fine in snow too because of the tire size. Bonus is that you'll be dressed warm enough to walk home because the heater won't keep you warm. Posted by: Notsothoreau - look forward at February 06, 2021 11:08 AM (YynYJ) 365

I don't think BLM is a corporate tool, but a donk tool and corporate America is paying protection money. Donk stormtroopers like antifa and BLM seem to be rewarded far beyond the level of tools. It was fascinating to see the different treatment given to left wing protestors v conservative protestors.
The donks literally knelt before BLM and paid their bill. The GOPe disavowed conservative protestors and called for them to be purged. Informed delivery tells me to expect mail from the RNC today, I look forward to telling Chairwoman Romney what I think of the RNC.

How difficult is it for someone who has prided
himself on being largely self-sufficient for a lifetime to face the reality of physical and mental decline and having to admit becoming dependent on others?

394 An entrenching tool, a fallen tree to squat on, and a love of nature are all you need if healthy. I am presently content with a Metamucil regimen and the 70th birthday gift I bought The Knee and The Other Knee (and The Hip), an elevated toilet seat. The simple things in life.

Posted by: BurtTC at February 06, 2021 11:25 AM (oQ94s) This may very well be true. The GOPe seems to have given itself too much credit for their gains in the house and have not yet awakened to the fact that their rank and file congressmen had less to do with their election than PDT did. I don't believe they have caught on to the anger felt by the voters, but see it as transient. This also explains Teh Ted's "reckless rhetoric" comment. He sees himself as the 2024 candidate if he can push PDT out of the way. He is in for a rude awakening. Posted by: CN loves Biden, Biden is the greatest at February 06, 2021 11:30 AM (ONvIw) 412
