Even more so, now!

(great book, btw).

I look forward to your sharing your rebuilding efforts – it can assist…[Read more]

“We do have some cash reserves for land/property buying it’s not yet time in our opinion to buy as the great calamity has not hit yet.”

Sifting through data, and reading the tea leaves :), we have decided it IS the great calamity and are relocating asap, as I noted in another thread.  With a little luck, you’ll be…[Read more]

Since my husband and I are semi qualified peppers (reading/research/collecting books/following protocol) for many years, we’re comfortable with identifying general SW area outside of Asheville.  I identified Asheville more as a map pin, but will be more…[Read more]

We’d just persuaded family to move to a homestead lifestyle a few months ago ` – husband and I have had small homestead experience for 20 years, but 2 years ago moved close to new grandchild, not really a homestead area (SoCals desert). Then, doncha know, boom. Lockdown.
