Thanks for the information, very good to know. I'd been saving for buying a house for some time now and a few years back I decided instead to purchase land and wait to do anything with it until I'm done with my journey.

I could certainly give some highlights, I've been working on a sort of diary/memoir since I started at seventeen. No real plans to publish at this point, just recording my experiences. What section of the forums would be best for something like that? This topic was my first post on PoA.
