Turns out I stumbled across that page probably around a year ago now. I found it as inspiring as you seemed to. It really got me thinking about more possibilities for the future of our half section of land (where that cow moose had her calf) that is currently left mostly wild. Thanks for bringing it back into my focus.Jerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354640729644229842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301855515376548538.post-79837094046471934632009-06-27T19:55:38.894-04:002009-06-27T19:55:38.894-04:00I would invite you to one but it seems a fair ways...I would invite you to one but it seems a fair ways for you to travel...<br /><br />This morning I was just at a 'garden raising' where a bunch of us helped build a raised bed garden in someone's yard (the best we can do in an urban situation).<br /><br />It's a great model--folks in the climate action group I belong to have even talked about bike trailer raisings--where we'd work together to build bike trailers to help folks be able to carry more with their bikes. When we work together there's a lot we can accomplish.<br /><br />Here's hoping you can find some folks to do stuff with you.MoonRavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03010194761440202586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301855515376548538.post-9389988280029471942009-06-27T04:00:08.034-04:002009-06-27T04:00:08.034-04:00Weatherization barnraisings...I like that.Weatherization barnraisings...I like that.Jerryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10354640729644229842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301855515376548538.post-72558198320170174022009-06-01T14:36:44.773-04:002009-06-01T14:36:44.773-04:00Thanks for the comment, Robyn.

It's important to remember (for me as well as you) that what I'm doing is collecting tools, only some of which will be useful at any given time. Feel free to take what you can use and leave the rest--and who knows, it may be useful later.<br /><br />I like the idea that your community values its home and that you are "living responsibly in it". Older homes can be a challenge, I know. There are definitely days when a gypsy wagon or a mobile home or maybe a houseboat seem like nicer ideas.<br /><br />Incidentally, I would like to mention your work in an upcoming post--you can contact me at moonraven222@gmail.com if you have any thoughts about that.<br /><br />Blessings on you.MoonRavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03010194761440202586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5301855515376548538.post-57927029437624835412009-06-01T10:52:44.794-04:002009-06-01T10:52:44.794-04:00I dont know how to say this without sounding all w...I dont know how to say this without sounding all weird... but i love your blog, most of your info is a little beyond my scope, just beyond where i am... and that is a very good thing.<br /><br />We do intentional community in an older home (5400 sq ft) and living responsibly in it is our continued goal. The older home has been a challenge on some fronts, some days that gypsy wagon sounds like a nice alternative. <br /><br />So thank you for the push and reminders...<br /> <br />Be blessed today and always.SilenceBetweenTheWordshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10485218450647128217noreply@blogger.com
