Hello Everyone,
Firstly I want to say OMG My head is exploding.  The amount of inspiration on this site is incredible. As if I didn't have enough things to distract me from getting anything actually DONE- now I have about 1000000 more ideas! THANK YOU EVERYONE!  I am a new Wheaton Labs fan.
Also wish I could jump on a plane and come see for myself but alas, that isn't happening at the moment. Hopefully in the future more will be possible. Meanwhile, maybe some of you passionate permies-people are near Bancroft Ontario?  
I am super keen to learn how to make a rocket mass heater - or 100 of them for different uses, including hot tubs, saunas, cabins etc... of course zoning bylaws around here are enough to make a sane person pass out- but I am sure there are many creative solutions to things if the right minds get on the matter.  
Also wanting to build gardens, humanure toilet systems and... well, how much time have you got?
We have a 200 acre playground just waiting for the explosive ideas in my head to come to life. What's missing is hands and know-how. We have a fair bit of know-how on basic stuff, but as is the way of things the more you learn the more you realize you have SOOOO much more to learn!
Would be awesome to connect to some local keeners. Please be in touch if you are in our hood! OR if you just wish you could visit!

Thanks again for all the amazing inspiring ideas!!!
THANKS!!! Kathy in Ontario
