I’ve always cherished the conceit that this blog attracts a more intelligent class of reader. I may have proved it with this April Fool’s Day post, which didn’t seem to fool very many people. I’ve bolded the “hints” I tried to drop:

We’d made some discrete inquiries about what our land and compound might sell for, purely out of curiosity. That led to some key representation on the national level, and we find that we’re the subject of a rather head spinning bidding war! We can’t, of course, provide too many details at the moment, but the latest price we’ve heard is over $1.25 million. And climbing.
I found this photo on beachamconstruction.com, and captioned it “Goodbye Rainforest, hello, Tuscany!”
