Tom just packed up and left Chicago for Arizona. I bet there's no way he'd consider Iowa. It's 1 deg F outside here right now (Midland, MI). When we retire, it's back to south Texas.

We have -22 this morning in North Central Mn. I bet Iowa is quite balmy in comparison this morning.

It's 41F here but I don't mind as I'm inside today.

Minis and bikinis (and those who wear them) are the ONLY thing I miss from LoCal. Then again, that IS a real biggie, isn't it?

I knew there was a good reason I didnt relocate to Oregon.

Im up in Cowlitz county ( SW Wa. ) in an unzoned area, where pretty much anything goes........

No wonder the farmers are going broke - all hobbies now!

I don't believe the 'can't have a commercial business on farmland' or ranchland. Both are businesses and often multiple businesses exist be be either.

I didn't look it up, but he may be talking about a zoning/taxation regulation, like we have here in NJ and some other states. Ag land is taxed at a very low rate. Once it's designated agricultural, and you claim agricultural tax rates for it, you can't run some other kind of business there, which would carry a much higher tax rate.

Or maybe that's not it. That would be it if he were talking about my state.

New Jersey? Can they still grow things in NJ? I thought after that last dioxin leak, it was pretty tough to get stuff to germinate.

:^)

Maybe cranberries?

The bat wings on the cranberries is only a minor irritation

Same here in the UK. Agricultural land is exempt from all sorts of taxation so long as it is used for "agriculural use only". The effective word is ONLY, which means that it is used for no activity whatsoever that isn't agriculrtural. Even a slight secondary usage, say on one day a year, will lose its exemption status.
