You described nearly exactly my little place here in the countryside too. I noticed property taxes were up this year, and the electric co-op cut down two of my favorite trees while I was on vacation because they said they were too close to the lines.

There’s always something. sigh

The power co-op cleared three problem trees after I called them out which opened things up enough that I've been able to drop a bunch more myself with no issues. Got an Alaska mill on the way to process the trunks into lumber, the greenhouse is going in this fall. My only real complaint is the bizarre amount of mice we have on the property, but that's a solvable problem.
