Awesome, I hope they are all having a great time talking shop.

...and alas still no punch line... I thought I had one involving longterm storage food, pie, and pigs but it wasn't working out...

Well done, Burra! Brad, I think you're warm. "Catastrophe" should be in there some where.

Love the picture,,,,, the cast is interesting,,
Ummm the drainfield question,,, you should of all sent him up to our house to see gardening over the drain field with straw bale not the huglkulture..
However gray water is illegal in Lake county(where the site is located) as we have found out in a not so happy way...Specially if your close to the lake....More zoning and regulations even more so down on the reservation...
I do have a question about the site there and perhaps it was addressed.. Dayton area tested high in arsenic,,Black lake has been considered a dead lake for many years..It tested really nasty a couple of years ago....Did that come up in any of the conversations or will it have any affects if it is still testing high???

I got this ------------------- A prepper, a permie, and Sepp Holzer walk into a bar...

They hear a noise outside and the prepper immediately opens fire, killing a couple of innocent religious door knockers. There's blood and guts everywhere. The prepper and Sepp quickly devise a plan to chop everything up and feed the evidence to the pigs. The permie protests, stating that he doesn't believe in enslaving animals to clean up our messes. To which Sepp replies --- (say it with me) "Then, you must do the pig's work !!!"

Thanks Craig. Did you know where it was going when I said "Sepp replies"? Many regular visitors will remember this video, where Paul talks about removing blackberries and Sepp's reaction to a guy who wouldn't use pigs.


I just added that to the end of my signature.

Yeah. I didn't remember the exact context but I did recall those words from Sepp being rather humorous and quite enlightening.

A prepper , a permie , and Sepp Holzer walk into a bar . Shortly thereafter two pigs walk in . One pig puts a dollar in the jukebox . The pigs begin slowdancing to Bonnie Raitts' " Something To Talk About " . Sepp Holzer says " A round of blackberry brandy for the house ! Let's see if there is any Polka music on that juke !"

I'm Sorry !
