There;s nothing wrong with being a baboon though.

I have watched a few of his videos. Love him. Used his chicken tractor model (with some mods). He wrote a book a year or so ago that is good for people starting/rejuvenating a small to medium farmstead. If I were still pursuing that life, I think I would get it. Polyface Designs: A Comprehensive Construction Guide for Scalable Farming Infrastructure Paperback – March 1, 2021 . I think it would be a bit much for a simple homesteader.

Close inspection of the photo prompts the question whether Traditional Skills includes Viking Raids and the Art of Looting 101, a.ka. How to Pillage and Pick Your Spoils, a.k.a. Only Farm When You Have To/When There Isn’t an Available Farm to Raid.

We have a government full of "moroons". But using that word insults baboons. I have it on good authority (my orangutan uncle), that many baboons are much better educated, (and behaved), than many of our legislators.

Too bad it's over that ocean.

Still, you bringing it to attention is much appreciated! While we do have a stack of books and knowledge to draw on, more is better - especially with different perspectives. Love that feeling of "Oh, so that's how they do it, and that's why they do it that way!", even for the most basic stuff like splitting logs or making kindling.

That looks awesome. I’d love to go to something like this, if it was on the east coast. Honestly, I should just move to Idaho at this point. The pictures really sell it.

Everyone knows that a moroon is your second macaroon best partaken with good English tea at 5pm on a weekday. Replace with a small pile of Bourbon chocolate flavoured sandwich biscuits at the weekends. Traditions like these must be respected.

I would be seriously interested were I not now seventy years old, as for the past ten years I have lived (with my two English Setters) in a twenty-five foot Airstream, and traveled the country. That said, I seriously believe the smart folks are headed in this direction, as survival in this country appears to become a harder thing based upon the politics in Washington, DC today. I would also recommend firearms training. (Hoping you had a good weekend shooting your new pistol.)
