Paul,

My turn to apologize for a delayed reply. Ive been incredibly busy. There is a 50/50 that 10 MW of solar in Idaho will greenlight and tie me up for 2016.

As for WL, The devil will be in the details. Also, i should be able to confirm my availability soon. Perhaps an initial visit is the best way to see things myself and ask the many questions regarding living arrangements and project details.

Can you make time for this? When? Next time we blink it will be the new year....

Jocelyn,

Thanks for noticing my post. No I did not send Paul an email. I was refering to my initial signup information. I figured Paul would have administrative rights to that information and could use it if he was at all interested.

I'm uncertain how to contact either one of you outside this public forum so i just fired off a reply to Paul's post. Perhaps PM is more appropriate...
Please let me know if there is interst in private dialogue about "bounties".

Be well! Love what I see at Permies. Thanks

PS i watched the Fire Science DVD today. Love the groups' humor

Paul,

I am interested. Please contact me via the email which you now have.

I am a scrappy, budget oriented construction professional that is self motivated and knows how to complete a project hell or high water.
I first built bridge and hospital foundations and I now build PV and CPV solar power stations. I transitioned to solar in order to do something more sustainable and am now a bit disillusioned with realities of the industry. I have self studied alternative construction practices since college but my practical experience is limited. However, the interest and problem solving ability is there and I'm certain that I could tackle your projects successfully.

To be fully transparent, I would not attempt to make 100k in the first year but, this target could likely be achieved in the next few years. I would need a business relationship that allowed for some limited offsite work as well. The ultimate goal would be a fulltime, fully leveraged career as a natural builder /educator / entrepreneur.

I decided to buy rural property and create a self sufficient lifestyle with limited commuting to fund necessities. I have recently completed a road trip of the PNW that brought me as far north as Missoula. I would like to accomplish the land purchase in the next year or so. Since making this decision, which I have ALWAYS dreamed of, I discovered the survival podcast and became a voracious listener. This is where I first heard of Wheaton labs, Ants etc. I will gladly accelerate my listening of your podcasts as I understand this a requirement for your consideration.

Please reach out if you are interested in discussing a business relationship. If not, I hope our paths cross in some other way. Thanks. CB
