Southern VA lot - What to do

[BackRoad]

2x6, 2x6, 2x6...it's code now in many places along with the added R-value insulation. The future Mr. BuckeyeFarmer will thank you for it!

...especially if there's any possibility Mrs. BuckeyeFarmer may move into it in the future...

That looks like a lot of land to mow sitting on a ZT! Suspect your tractor could handle an 8' finish mower with aplomb.

Usually 2hrs with ZT. Takes longer with BX, both 60”.

Have to agree, 2x6.
There is no comparison to structural solidness of being in 2x6 vs 2x4. Not to mention the better R value and the quietness.
When I was still running my remodeling business, I built with 2x6 since day one back in 1983. Told customers, that is the only way I build. If they didn't want it, I told them to hire somebody else.

Got a good offer on the lot from a neighbor while we were on vacation last month. It is now sold.

Not the closure I expected, but closure. Thanks for the update, and congratulations on the sale

When we bought, one option was to just flip it. Not sure what our plans is going forward, but it won't be land 4 hrs away. 2 hrs is the most we want to go.
