Hey fellow permies!
It's been a while since I've hosted a
project thread with my current going-ons, in fact I believe my last one was nearly a decade ago in regards to a family parcel near Cheyenne that has long since sold, that property has some impressively sized hugels resting on it that are slowly maturing into something I hope is rather beautiful and well used by current inhabitants.
As for my current project, I wouldn't mind somewhere convenient to store some memories for future me, and permies is a great place for stuff like that!
About the current project: approx 10 acres situated atop a sandy hill in a rural community in central wyoming, near Casper. This is my property that we are currently buying. The property was previously occupioed by someone that had more horses than sense, an unfortunately common affliction in this part of the world. So this project will involve restoring
land that was eaten down to absolutely nothing on about 1/2 of the property, designing
water, access and structure to the land, and creating a working 10 acre silvopasture that supplies product for a profitable business. The current home is a tin can on a hilltop(read mobile home exposed to all the winds) but the plan is to begin building my not-quite-wofati home in the next 5 years or so.
Right now, I am 2 years in on a 1 year clean up and in the designing phase of the project.
While I am on the computer, I'll share a few pics to start the thread off right
and a quick key for the house images:
Black outline for the frame, not including roof design because it is google earth
Lines to and from:
Yellow - electric in
Blue - Water in, from well to east and an auxillary line to gravity
feed from tank uphill
Grey - greywater out
