I am excited that we will learn how to make wind power from you, among the many other things you've got at that site! This is a fantastic opportunity that motivates me to get organized and move on this whole project. I'm revising the CR website now.<BR/><BR/>And Lark, hehehe. I don't hunt, trap or shoot anything! But i am planning a garden this year!<BR/><BR/>And if i depended on the internet to barter out here I'd be staring at a blank screen. they just got access in Chitina last year, and I don't think anyone's using it.<BR/><BR/>This may not be the wilderness, but we can see it from here. :)Niki Raapanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14835214436658839836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938933649493088489.post-76544731318040230742009-02-17T15:34:00.000-08:002009-02-17T15:34:00.000-08:00You may want to consider doing a little of your ow...You may want to consider doing a little of your own gardening, Niki - especially if you're ever unable to forage, catch, shoot, or trap your own food!<BR/><BR/>http://www.aliveraw.com/Articles/The-Eighteen-Wonders-of-Wheatgrass.aspx?rid=0023<BR/><B>Eighteen Wonders of Wheatgrass</B><BR/><BR/>All that's required is fresh water, nutrient-rich soil, some homemade compote, the sun [or a grow lite], and the wheat berries. After sprouting, save a few to make your own Essene Bread or a nice salad.<BR/><BR/>And to think: When it's too cold outside, the entire operation can be easily performed inside...<BR/><BR/>If you set up a local barter club online for your neighbors, you can even be the one collecting the ten percent "transaction fee!" Next, link to another barter exchange or two in the big cities for things like dentistry, guest lodging, travel, vet services, attorney services, restaurant meals, seed dealers, ammo makers, sled makers, dog trainers, taxidermists, meat processors, wilderness guides, hunters, trappers, fishermen, and colloidal silver suppliers... or just whatever.<BR/><BR/>Y'all just may decide you don't need the rest of the world; in which case, you can see if the other barterers wouldn't just as soon trade in their own wampum! ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7938933649493088489.post-8059973043550594962009-02-17T09:55:00.000-08:002009-02-17T09:55:00.000-08:00Hello,Our family has been living off the grid for ...Hello,<BR/>Our family has been living off the grid for the past 15 years and teaching what we have learned.
