I remember a friend of my mom’s having the foxfire series over forty years ago. Full of lore and how-to from the days before Prime Shipping from Overseas To You: Suddenly relevant for us again.

And on the other hand, I know we *aren’t* neighbors and I wish we were close enough that the wife and I could see you at the farmer’s market and pick your brain.
You keep up the long-form narration, I’m behind the curve of knowing what I need to know but trying to gain momentum.

The local (chain) used bookstore has them for ten each when they have them—usually only the first four, even though there were quite a few of them in the series. I have also seen the first four or so online in pdf form, too. I prefer paper copies, but an e-copy is better than nothing.

This reminds me of Jack Spirko’s podcast on Gray Man gardening. He reminds us that, as recorded in the book ‘Ersatz in the Confederacy’, fields of Cowpeas weren’t burned on Sherman’s March To The Sea because none of the Yankee Boys had ever seen them before. https://www.thesurvivalpodcast.com/24-bullet-proof-plants

–And I got more background on this from the Homestead Happenings the other day. No, we don’t need to have them appearing in his sleep, because counting them would not be restful for him, against the stereotype.

So she had you going with all the throes and exclamations of a birth, but did’nae’?
“full of sound and fury, signifying nothing”-?

If he hyperfocuses on sheep, I bet that cuts down on the time *you* have to hyperfocus on the sheep, freeing you up for the finer points of roasting and vlogging.

Do you think all of this is wrong as well -
This seconded. I tried to do my due diligence searching for a profile here, Mewe, YouTube, etc.

I am glad to see you here. I came to know LFTN through TSP, and enjoy listening to you and Tactical, and your Homestead Happenings, and have gotten to talk to you at Camden and Centerville get togethers.
As for me? There’s a TL;DR essay on my About section I won’t belabor here.

I got the ‘one percent’ reference– but using correct spelling, and the lack of things on fire, broke the illusion.

There’s discussion over on the Tennessee Group about who’s where– Youtube’s “Autumn Dawn Endeavors” is a nice couple that just moved to WesternMiddle ish Tennessee from Ohio, have their presences on freesteading/LFTN and are in the process of Figuring Things Out, like the rest of us.

I can’t find a ThumbsUp anywhere to hit for your comment.
For someone who knows Terry Prachett’s Tiffany Aching Books:
Sometimes we ‘Nach Mac Feegles’ lack a good ‘Kelda’ for our Clan. -
I have the feeling Nicole had no idea the compression would be so lossy on her upload.
What the signs might say, as I have a CSI-Enhance Feature on my Farnsworth Compulator:
On The Left:
(9) “9% of eaters {alternately, ‘estates’}
don’t have a
garden
# Occupy the Holler” {Only Probably. The compression really makes it look like ‘Geogy To Hater’, but I doubt that is what is written}On the Right:
“1% of
Americans
can’t live
in a holler
I Occupy the H” (oller) {The i actually looks like the numeral one, but this is a more logical parsing}Parentheses are what is probably obscured by the pose; brackets contain alternate readings.
I would like to know why 1% can’t live in a holler, and i am also glad that 99% of the country has yet to come to our holler/Hollow.
Parking, for example, would be an absolute Bear.- This reply was modified 2 years, 2 months ago by packrat.
