2 miles in and no cell service…

Does anyone else have a mini (or not so mini) obsession with moving water? 

From the moment I stepped onto the property, all I could hear was the sound of rushing water. 

As I rounded the corner of an old logging trail, or a previous hunting road (hard to tell), the dramatic view swallowed me whole. 

A steep gorge plummeting to mossy boulders, tumbling water, and a 15-20 foot wide creek came into view. 

As I followed the roar became louder until I stood on top of a rushing waterfall with a 50 foot drop into an even deeper ravine. 

I was stunned. 

“I don’t know if we can develop this property, but if we can, this place will be unlike anything else” I said in a video I took for Tanner that day.

And then reality sank in. 

This property had been on the market only 14 days (a very short time for land). 

But I knew, from the previous 5 months, how fast land with water— let alone an epic waterfall— would be sold. 

I felt the urgency to get Tanner to call our real estate agents ASAP. 

There was just one problem… I was now 2 miles into our property and had no cell service…

I could feel the FOMO kicking in.
