Supplies

Didn't find any new supplies at yard sales this month. Then again didn't
go to many or the flea market much. Hopefully it will be cooler at the
flea market in sept and october and make more money.

The colony

Been watching a show on discovery channel called the colony. Its a group
of people who are stranded in a warehouse area and they think the world
was wiped out by a virus and they are few survivors. Any how, they have
showed you can use a battery bank for power and recharge it with a
pressure washer and a car alternator. The cool part is, that they don't
has gas, so they created a system that burns wood, and then that wood
heats up wood in a smaller container and makes gasification. So no gas,
and burn wood, makes burnable gas fumes off the wood. They used this
back in europe in the world wars when gas was scarce. This show is gonna
be very useful.

Elko county

Apparently elko county does not care what is built in the montello area.
So it looks like I could in theory build my area up with sheds and other
creative ways to make structures. Maybe I can still use my ez up tents
as structure frames, and line the walls with plywood as I originally was
going to do.

They made it

Michael and michael made it to montello on august 1st. They are having a
truck issue, but seem to be going well. The feed store in wendover is
closed, but there is one in wells perhaps. We will hollaback farm all
the luck in the world. Wish we had our adventures beginning at the same
time.
