Hello Everyone!!! My name is Rosie Moore (SugaWuga). I am currently a full-time Soldier in the U.S. Army. I have been in almost 11 years come this April. I have decided to stop being a Soldier full-time and do my remaining 7 years in the Reserves and persue my dream of becoming a self-sustainable farmer. I am currently deployed in Djibouti Africa until June. I have recently purchased 6 acres of land high in the Rocky Mountains of Alamosa, CO and I am supper excited about it

. I will be coming to visit my land in July when we are on block leave. I will not officially be living on my land until the end of my contract with the Army in April 2016. So I plan to come and visit my land every chance I get and start building my home and farm.

I have never had my own land or farm, so this will be a new adventure for me but it has always been a dream of mines. I am currently attending Oregon State University and persuing my Bachelors of Science in Agricultural Science with a minor in Horticulture and I am also attending Ashworth College to get my career degree in Veterinary Assistant. So I am very busy being a Soldier, Student and full-time mom to my 13 year old daughter.

I look forward to meeting you all and sharing experiences with you.

Hi SugaWuga and welcome!:frow I had family by Alamosa back in the day, but it's been a lot of years since I was in that area. I still have family in the Westminster and Ft. Collins area, Greeley....now that I think about it, there are some sprinkled all over. Sometimes I miss Colorado! Like every summer. :eek:)
It's wonderful that you found some land to buy. It's not a bad thing to be able to hang out and see how the different seasons impact the area. You also have some time to decide where you want trees, check out water location, etc. I'm assuming you'll have a private well?
