    The plans for the property include not only building a house but also an "Accessory Dwelling Unit". A small apartment planned for no more than 2 people.

    Would give us some rental income for a few years. Then if the need arises can be part of the "pay" for a caretaker/nurse if we end up needing one.
     
    Rocks and dwells40 Thank this.

    That is a good way to go.
    Up here dry cabins are popular, no running water, so hardly any maintenance, one room with a loft rents for around 700 bucks a month. Several people have 6 to 12 of them on a piece of property and it makes for a good retirement.
     
    dwells40, Rocks and Blu_Ogre Thank this.

    Not in the dry cabins. some of the places that have several have one that they maintain with water. it will usually have a restroom a couple of sinks to wash dishes and a washer and dryer.
    Most that just have 1 to 4 or 5 have outhouses. lol

    You have to be careful and maybe lucky too, to rent places here with water, it costs a fortune if a renter screws and does not keep the heat on in the winter.
     
    Rocks Thanks this.

    So.. today was this city's 440 Anniversary.. and only restaurants and a few businesses were open...
    I took a walk on the beach front this afternoon and then went back at night to meet a couple of friends.... there was going to be a free show on a stage that was set on the beach nearby... Lots of tents were set to sell food and drinks.. lots of people went there but the show was cancelled at night.. I heard folks saying the city didn't pay... the city was sponsoring the show... :biggrin_25523:
    Here are some pictures from this afternoon and night...
