I am sorry to report that my efforts to acquire land in Colorado have fallen short. I have not been able to find land suitable for my purposes which have sufficient water available. I continue to look--and expanded my search to surrounding states--but as of right now, the plan for a summer retreat of forced labor and rigid discipline in 2014 is cancelled.
I deeply apologize to everyone for the inconvenience of offering the possibility and then falling down on the delivery. However, I am very encouraged by the nearly two dozen (TWO DOZEN!) men who stepped forward expressing interest in this adventure.
I will continue my efforts and hopefully have some land suitable for shirtless sweaty labor under the lash of my whip in 2015.
