I've been debating this myself, but I'm going to be stuck to Maryland for at least another 20+ years since my kids are really young and we intend on having at least one more, and considering that I'll be building up my practice in Maryland, leaving might be a pipe dream. Anyhow, once we get a single family home I would like to buy a farm. My question is going to be where to buy that farm. I was initially thinking somewhere on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, but that would limit my options of leaving this place. I feel sorry for those on the Eastern Shore because their lives are run by three counties and a City that either surround DC or are directly north of DC along I-95. Everybody else in Maryland is stuck with what these super liberal counties decide to do.
So, I have been mulling over land in North Carolina, South Carolina, and possibly Florida. I love wing shooting, and if I could find a farm that would lend itself to upland game such as doves, quail, and pheasants, and also be in the Atlantic flyway, I would be in heaven. Then, if I really get sick of Maryland I can spend a good portion of my time at the farm. In another 20 years everything will be electronic anyway.
