It's crazy the way life works...
About 5 years ago, my life was in utter chaos. Businesses being destroyed, lives ruined...And I was at the brink of basically giving up!
My entrepreneurial dreams came crashing down, and like you guys know who have been following my journey, it's been an uphill battle since.
You know how many times I wanted to give up?
Actually....I never did!
The thought never crossed my mind. I knew from an early age in life, I'd always be an entrepreneur so this was my....Test! And this past weekend...It kind of paid off ;)
After years of living in major cities and being surrounded by millions of people, my family and I made the decision to move to the....
Middle of nowhere lol
Literally, we're about as far away from civilization as you can be...O.k., we're not THAT far but we are about to be in rural Alberta, Canada!
And this weekend, was part 1 of 3 of our 'move' of a lifetime!
I'm going to share a few pics of the new acreage and go over our plans for the next few years...God willing :)
Thats my mom....On the driveway up to the house. It's not a massive property, but man oh man...It's more land than I ever thought I'd live on lol
The property is surrounded by as much farmland as you could possibly imagine. Yeah that's basically the backyard. Not part of the property, but as you can see...The neighbours are....Quite a ways away. In fact, you can't even see them because....They aren't close at all LOLOL.
This is a view from the first outbuilding, to the road. Lots of trees surround the property but here's the kicker...It's home to a bunch of owls and falcons...I actually saw a few of them chasing little birds around all afternoon. I loved every second of it LOL
Here's a side view of the second outbuilding. With the 'backyard' in the distance lol. We've got big plans for this land but for this year, it'll just be family time beside the fire pits and lots of exploring.
Now here's the challenges I'm sure to face....
First, I'm a city slicker lol. I have grownup and spent the bulk of my life in major cities so this will all be new to me. My wife has a desire to build a small chicken farm and get into raising them. Of course, we know NOTHING about that or living off the land. So this will be a project to say the least lol
Thankfully I've discovered 
Second and this is the biggest issue for me is....Internet!
Being in the city, you never think about it. You expect LTE or 5G on your cell phone all day, every day. You expect lightning fast internet in your home as well. Well, it doesn't work that way in the middle of 'Po' Dunk Alberta'...
And the cell service is sketchy at best out there so....What are we going to do?
Looks like we're going to give our buddy Elon Musk a call and see if his fancy Starlink satellites can help us out lol
The CryptoManiacs Podcasts will be....Universal now :)
This is a big change and my life might be a bit chaotic for the next few months as we get adjusted. But it's an adventure. It's something my family has been dreaming about for years and...We're going to make it work!!!!
