I would like to live a little farther out from "civilization" (i.e., the strip malls, chain stores and restaurants, etc.)....but still within a reasonable distance. I stated that I'd like to live within 50 miles of a Trader Joes. Where we are now, it's maybe 6 miles to a TJs.

I'd also like to have a bit more land. Right now, we have 1/4 acre. I'd like to have at least 1 to 2 acres around me. The city I live in has a population of 100,000+. I'd rather be in a smaller town, or even in an unincorporated county area.

So I'm closer to what I ultimately want, but not quite there yet. :)
