Acreage living has many benefits. You get to see beautiful stars at night and share your land with wild animals. The only sounds at night are a ticking clock and an occasional blast from the furnace. Living in the bush, we miss out on access to town services such as water, sewer and broadband. The dish has been a godsend. First came satellite TV, then radio. I recently signed up for High Speed Satellite Internet. It's expensive compared to Shaw. (no ADSL in the Pass) The "always on connection" has reduced my cell phone bills. When I'm home, the cell can now be forwarded to my (dial-up free) land line. It's resulted in fewer incoming long distance charges.
Another bonus has been the ability to video conference with Max. Gotta love the iMac too.
