According to rev mike, it has snowed twice in the past week. Couple of
inches are on ground, its been real cold. Tampa weather folks say there
is more snow heading to montello area, they didn't mention montello,
just the general area... What does this mean to my moving and building
plans for next october? Will I be screwed and have to stay in tampa even
longer now.... I really hope not.... its october 4th and its 91 degrees
rather be freezing in montello... rev mike says his solar heater is
keeping his camper a toasty 70 degrees throughout day and night.... 1
month down, 12 more to go, hopefully be in montello next october,, good
luck rev mike

At the flea market
Its colder weather, wait, I live in florida, its cooler lol by 5 degrees
so I should be able to walk around. Looking for more supplies I can put
into storage until next october. Hurt my back this week, so hopefully
walking around will help it heal, I somehow doubt that though. Gonna
search for another generator, maybe a wind turbine, doubt will find a
wind turbine tho. Has anyone done any gas generator fuel ration test
yet? Is thinking running it for 7 hours on a gallon of gas reasonable? I
was planning to run it for 7 hours to charge batteries or just to run
lights at night until bed time, maybe to watch a tv and dvd player at
night. If its only a gallon of gas per 7 hours, that's about 30 gallons
a month, not too bad for an electric bill. I do think wind power or
solar power is a better cheaper option, but seeing as I bought this
generator already...

Update update
October 1st 2010, I finally get to my dream place. Monkey Bone Ranch
finally launches. Just need to make it till december 2009 and my car is
paid off. That will free up about $230 a month to save for the move. All
supplies are already bought, so hopefully sitting in storage for another
year doesn't make them useless.

Pallet house
Really debating making a house from pallets, just screwing them together
like prebuilt sections. Cover the inside with osb make it air tight.
Cover the outside with vinyl siding. Cover roof with metal flashing,
maybe even make a gutter to collect rain water. Really enjoy the 9
square feet pallet ideas and the tiny house ideas.

UPDATE ON TREVOR COHEN
Turns out he was a scammer, never sent the well funds or the water tank holding funds. No memorial will be built for him on my goat farm.

New friends
Just met a nice fellow from california, he has bought 10 acres north of
montello. Apparently the north of montello land sales are booming. He
plans to move in about 3 years. The population of montello is going to
be increasing shortly. Hopefully the new resident, is able to bring in
wireless internet to the valley as he hopes too. Wind power seems to be
the option everyone says is the way to go, due to the wind power and
speed.
