Timeline:
Sunday: DH has epiphany that we must move to the country
Monday: DH and I e-mail lots, house plans, and hobby farms for sale back and forth all afternoon
Tuesday: We drive out to Western Wisc. to see a cute farmhouse [1] with 20 acres (terrain not suited to horses though -- too much hill and woods) and a fabulous guest house. Tempting, but not quite right.
Wednesday morning: DH says, "It's 9 am! Start making more appointments to see farms!" I schedule one for Saturday, still trying to make contact with another.
Wednesday afternoon: DH calls and says "Guess where I am!" Somehow it is not hard to guess that he has left work, unable to wait until Saturday to see another farm house [2]
The man has the fever. My middle ground is that we buy land ASAP and then proceed at a moderate pace, but I can tell you that when DH gets an idea, he is like a steamroller stuck in 5th gear.
Not sure where we go from here. He is headed home now with a cell phone full of photos to show me. Help!
