(yeah, the name sucks, got a better one, send me an email) I just realized I had yet another Wednesday night conflict – my next post, or go through the flyers posted tonight to see what I’ll be trying to stockpile for a rainy day. Then it hit me, why not

Revisiting an Old Friend – Home built Wooden Pirogue (Cheap Canoe)
I was stumbling around Green Deane’s forum, and ran across a post regarding pirogues, or flat bottom canoes made famous in Cajun country.

Pre-Weekend News Mishmash 29 March 2012
FWIW, I’ve added a “Calendars” page subsection (find it near the top of the page)with a diary-style log of what I’m doing in my garden, and with my livestock. This is partly to let me keep track of what I’ve done, and partly to allow you to understand how little it actually takes to get […]
On the prep list: air guns
Going to try to make a regular post titled “On the Prep List”. These will be short blurbs about equipment and supplies I believe are worth having “just in case”. This is my first entry. On my list of handy things to have, “just in case”, are
