Under Construction

There has been some really great weather here for about a week now, and we have been taking advantage of it. We have been building some loft shelving in the building that replaced the old red shed. This will give us more storage space for light duty items, as well as utilize our space more efficiently.

All of this work leads Frank to finalize the plans for our solar panel installation, which is very exciting. As we get closer to having everything prepared for this project more research, planning and figuring have to be done to make sure we have everything we need. Some of the ideas we have had during this planning phase have created some changes for the better.

While we spend more time outside in the wonderful sunshine and 76* weather on this balmy January 28th, we aren't spending much time preparing anything for the blog. We hope you'll understand. Please enjoy a few pictures from around the farm, while one of our long term dreams is under construction.

Enjoy these relatively peaceful days that we have been given. Dream big, plan well, work hard and your rewards will be very gratifying. All we can do and learn now may make life just a little bit easier when TEOTWAWKI comes knocking. Are you ready to answer that door?

Until next time - Fern
