Just wanted to say "HI". My husband and I are doing our best to become self-sufficent. We have a huge garden, a wind-turbine (homebuilt), 4 solar panels, solar water heater (homebuilt) and lots of ambition. We just got chickens this summer. Should have eggs by February LOL. Its taken us 30 yrs to get to this point and we keep plugging along a little at a time. Nice to meet you all and I look forward to the reading here.

I would love to hear more about your solar panels and what you use them for.

Welcome!! You are our new official source on wind and solar power. If we have any questions we know who to ask.

Grumpy old men, don't let Dac's fool you. Notice he was the first to welcome you!!

Most of my Mom's family is in the Grand Rapids area. Never been to Michigan myself.

We look forward to hearing about your adventures!!! :D
