As the baby boomers consider their future and their options, some are going back to the basics. The idea that they can be independent is very appealing to many. They recall the days when their grandparents lived closer to the land.

A slower time when sipping tea on the porch in a rocking chair was an afternoon ritual. Raising a garden for the fresh vegetables, having a small orchard that produces bushels of fresh fruits, and chickens that lay farm fresh eggs daily.

Nevada land is available to build the dream and lifestyle. Nevada offers an excellent moderate climate, and no state income taxes.

For many future retirees, a monthly trip to town for supplies will be all the traffic they will face. Some will raise a few cows, for fun and food. Some may raise a hog or have a flock of peacocks, guinea hens, or geese.

Riding their four wheelers or horses, they will spend their days exploring the thousands of acres of public lands in Nevada. Traveling the old roads from one old west ghost town to the next old mining ghost town.

Some will take up new hobbies, adding work shops and studios to their farms for the creative side they left back in the 60's. Some will build green solar homes and have wind turbines, adding power back to the grid for a change.

Many will spend their winters relaxing in the warmth of a pellet stove.

For many of the baby boomers this new lifestyle will be a healthier, slower, more fulfilling time of their life. A time when they can relax and let the world go by. The idea of self sufficiency is not only appealing it is attainable. Nevada farm irrigated farm land with water rights.
