Wrap the pipes and run the water. Say prayers.

A little land, almost 6 acres. It was part of ~33.5 acres, but the sellers kept the other 27+. We're actually in Borden (Weimar zip code) so between Columbus and Weimar. I've been working from home for about a year, and there's no end in site. We're moving in permanently towards the end of March and will probably live there for a year or so. The plan is for this to mostly be a weekend place. I was hoping that this winter would be mild so I'd have some time to insulate pipes and get things ready for next winter. The universe had other plans.

We've been there every weekend but one since we bought it. I love being out and away from everything. The only thing that's really going to take some adjustment is grocery shopping. We're 1/4 - 1/2 mile from a Kroger and Whole Foods. We've got several other HEB, Kroger and Whole Foods within 3 miles. If I forget one item at the store or one of us gets a craving, I can go and be back in 10-15 mins, max. The groceries stores that I've been to out there are VERY limited in the items that they have that we are used to. I think we'll end up shopping in town from time to time and having a very stocked fridge (maybe 2).
