Just had to share w my pilot friends here:
My wife and I are so excited! We just closed on almost 4 acres right on the runway at 4y4. We plan on building a cabin there in the spring and someday maybe spend significant time there once split custody kiddos are grown. Northern Michigan is absolutely beautiful, if you haven’t been. And now all of N Michigan will be but a hop away when we’re staying there.
4200’ paved runway, the headwaters of Michigan’s Manistee river are right down the road, two private lakes we get access to, a club house with a hot tub, pool and water slide, as well as a golf course and restaurant. We are geeked and humbled this is now ours. Once we get built maybe have to do a POA invite breakfast or something

Just an exciting moment, 2.5 hours from home on 4 tires, 40 mins or so in da Mooney… now to start planning construction…
