Map of the Ponderosa Ranch and its environs.

Text: My uncle was a ranch witch with two familiars: a chupacabra and a shotgun. The gun was alive in its own way, always warm to the touch, unwilling to shoot at anyone it knew and trusted. *

The eucalypts were full of woodpeckers, jays, and swallows. This was only the beginning of a very long, very good day.

If there's one thing I hate, it's stairs inside my house! (LOL) This home has no stairs inside the house, just an elevator. Should there be a power outage or equipment malfunction, you can use the stairs outside.

The house was built in 2022 in Landrum, SC, has 2bds, 2ba, 3 stalls and 17 acres of land. $1.1M.

Have you ever seen a house w/a facade like this? Those are the horse stalls. I wouldn't mind them being attached to the house, I love horses.

The house is cute inside. Has a brick fireplace wall with built-in shelving.

In the living room there's a cozy nook with shelving and drawers. That's so comfy looking. I would put tile in front of the fireplace, though, even if it's just for looks.

You can see the kitchen from the living room. I think there's probably room for a dining table behind the couch.

Kitchen's cute. Looks like it has a closet pantry and nice shelving.

Bedroom #1 is on the ground floor and 2 doors to the patio.

It has a very nice shower room en-suite.

And, this is the doggo's very own room.

Now, here's the elevator and no stairs inside the house. It looks claustrophobic. I like the new clear ones that are powered by vacuum and if they fail, they just slowly float back down.

The primary bedroom is on the 2nd level. I like the brick feature wall, and it has sliders to the enclosed porch.

It has a large en-suite with a separate toilet room, which is nice.

The enclosed porch is lovely, and there's a bed out here, too. Note the stairs. So, stair access is outside.

The main floor covered patio.

And, attached to the house are the horse stalls.

There's a lot of land. They even have a grain silo.

There's a lot that can be done with 17 acres.

It looks like a little ranch estate.

ok what if Tango actually was there. what if Ren was possessing Tango. what if, by weird time laws of the life series, the decked out stream happened before the life series, and Tango brought them all there, and Ren saw Martyn - and then secret life happened, and Ren was desperately trying to get in. By the time he manages to (because time moves faster in the life worlds), it's already been six weeks. and Ren gets into Tango, Tango the dungeon master. What if Tango was still in there the whole time, watching everything, but unable to move or speak or do anything because Ren was controlling his body? Tango was forced to watch Jimmy die and he couldn't even do anything about it. what the fuck

Places: On the Ranch

...the older I get, I have less need for contemporary culture and big cities and all the stuff we are bombarded with. I am happier at my ranch in the middle of nowhere watching a bug carry leaves across the grass, listening to silence, riding my horse, and being in open space.
