our {dream}

I'm a little depressed today. I've been in this little funk for a few days now. Losing sleep and dwelling on my negative thoughts. Over all I'm just bummed out.

Here is why:

D and I have talked about, dreamed about, planned for, plotted for, scrapped & saved for our dream property and home for a couple of years...so far.

We are still a few years away from starting anything and with this economy, maybe even further.

However, this came to our attention last week.

We are sooo disappointed. This is our dream property! 5.26 acres with mountain and gorgeous territorial views in West Salem.

In fact, one day when we were driving home from the coast, D looked up at a hillside, pointed and said "I want to live up there".

Well, guess where this land is! Just guess. Yep, right there on that hillside.

Unfortunately, we aren't in any position to afford this right now. So we'll wait. And wonder if this {or something like it} will be available in a few years. And wonder what this will cost in a few years. And wonder if somebody else will scoop this land up and build THEIR dream home on it.

Siiiiigh.
