I'm a certified Master Gardener. Highly experienced in subsistence living, e.g., Alaska, Maui, Arizona and New Mexico. My current homestead in New Mexico lost its water source in the persistent drought. And it's not coming back, because the State of New Mexico is diverting water rights to the cities.
I'm seriously thinking of moving to where there is an abundance in water. I've been to Death Valley and surrounding area, so I have an idea of the climate, challenges and environment.
What I'd like to know from you is what's the payoff in your situation? You said you have been there for 5 years. You don't actually own the land. But you are working hard making improvements. So what happens when the owner(s) tell you "it's time to move on?" Personally, I don't mind doing the work, but it has to at least have a simple business plan with a sustainable goal. Just living in a remote and beautiful place isn't enough. I can stake a gold mining claim and do that and/or work as a hunting guide. I highly prefer agronomy;however, I'd like to work with persons who think ahead. Another 5 years will go by fast. Then what?
Shoot me an email with your goals, and maybe I'll pay you a visit. I think I already passed by your hot spring a time or two. Take care.
Signed,
Guy
