A few from the inside... [ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH]
Well today we started down the tiny living road; at least for us. After considerable thought, we worked out a plan for moving into my...
1) The first step is to find a flower shop where a dozen red roses are cheap. 2) The second step is to get the Supply Center Catalog 3) The third...
I hear you chirping big bird! I grew up with a sawmill, and often got pressed into service to drag boards off the end of the saw rig. I learned...
I am on the fence on whether a sawmill is worth having or not. I have always had sawmills, but most of the time I just pay a custom sawmiller to...
They are an interesting sawmill, though we do not have one. If they have a saw kerf of 5/16 then I would recommend NOT buying one. That means for...

The hollow logs I hate are the ones where you are felling, get into the tree a bit, and then suddenly gallons of nasty rot-water comes spraying...
I have lived here all my life; I would not know how to live with the thought of a snake killing me. Even so, here it is against family law to see...
You guys can have your snakes. Thankfully in Maine, they are small enough for my patrolling ducks to kill, and all are non-poisonous.
All this really boils down to one thing, I am a minimalist at heart. I am not as bad as Bono of the famed rock band U2 who is such a minimalist...
Yeah I could have worded that better I suppose Canadian border VT , that is for sure. (I actually was not feeling good yesterday. I should have...
