I am having dental work done. I had a root canal Friday. Does that count?
P.S. Getting old ain't for sissies!
Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery? Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me Liberty or give me death." Patrick Henry, Virginia House of Burgesses, March 23, 1775

Tested the shotgun, the feasibility of having my dump pouch with75 rounds of 12ga shells. Learned how to shoot moving targets with the shotty.
Getting ready to close on 243 acres of wooded bliss in the middle of nowhere! Need to create pasture, ponds, basements for a main house and a small house and fencing....OH MY is RIGHT!!!! Oh yeah, did I say we want to do all of this totally off grid with hydropower and solar????
Met the neighbor today and thank God he does ponds and has an engineering background so he should be a good source of info and help. Good thing we know this is going to be a long term project!
Sweet deal for you and hubby. Be sure to check out your neighbors other work he has done. You have your hands full going totally off grid. I personally would push it as fast I could considering our current political state. I wish you the best of luck in your endeavor. Hell I'd bulldoze for free just because that was my first love for equipment . ( POWER)
As a side note; I have a 77 yr. old uncle in very good health who wants me to help find him some land near people like us. Guiding him towards Tennessee. He has no debt and pays cash only or doesn't buy. Waiting right now to hear back from him thru snail mail. Please post some pictures if it doesn't affect ospec. I promise not to cry with envy too much. Would love to see your project progress.
I picked up 12 Motorla Saber 2 radios for the group to use. They are encryption capable, and should extend our mobile to mobile operating range much farther out than FRS type radios. I think I'm set on coms now.

The waterfalls are 10' tall and have a small cave behind it...these are only a very small part of the water, still haven't seen all of it or even all of the land yet!

you didn't put the links in correctly, but a little copy and paste and I was able to pull them up.
