yes please. you can email it to me at crappymikspoonhead@yahoo.com. Thank you for getting back to me so quickly it was exciting to find your message today.
howdy, I was wondering if this opportunity you are presenting in this post is still available, and for how long? I have very limited experience with living amongst goats and I wish to expand my knowledge of healthy interactions with them in order to prepar me for my homesteading dreams of flowing with raw milk and cheese. If this were a letter on real paper you might see a little drool smeared across it in my efforts to clean it up. Anyway just poking my nose around to see whats up.

Thanks for your reply. I think I am realizing a few problems that could happen with the RMH in the van. For one, the cob could get pretty heavy, and once built theres a strong chance that once the van was moving the cob could crack...... I think instead I am now entertaining the idea of a wood stove in a van with an earthen plastered floor, and earth plaster walls or clay straw insulation. What Iam trying to work with is trying to create a warm space in winter thats cozy and not built with weird bad for me stuff. I also need to navigate the problem of moisture that I hope to keep at bay by burning dry heat........... Any ideas.......? Anything fun yall would try?

I guess I wanted to throw out there my idea of putting a rocket mass heater in my 1979 dodge camper van. Does this sound way to sketchy? Do-able? I figure I've seen enough buses with wood stoves. Thanks in advance for your considerations. oh and in case its relavent, Im in oregon.

HI there,
I couldnt figure out how to send you a private message, but didn't want to miss out on the opportunity to start dialogue with you about coming to particapate in the sytems yall have been working on establishing for what I understand to be around 12years! wow! I feel that from reading your post yall have alot to offer in terms of experiential learning, and I have enthusiasm for contributing what I can to help bring yall closer to a place of creating an integral relationship with your land base. I have contributed to alot of farm systems that make me wonder "why am I toiling so hard just to perpetuate systems that require a life of toiling, and why are they doing this to themselves??!!" maybe they believe they'll still be able to order online their pounds of imported leaf compost to be dumped at the loading dock of for their trackter trailer every week for the rest of their lives. Not to say that I think using gas guzzlers are inherently wrong, just that I believe they are tools best used to initially bring one or a peoples towards being able to step away from such dependecies. Well, I am sure that before you would invite me to have fun with yall you would like to hear more about me, I too would like to be able to talk more with you. I would prefer to do that either through email or phone. An email you can message me at is crappymikspoonhead@yahoo.com, once contacted there I would be comfortable in giving you a phone number you can reach me at if you prefer. Either way it sounds like yall are doing some cool stuff, and I send wishes of the fruits bearing with a decline of nessasary labor,
sincerely

I believe the chips are cottonwood....

OK kay Bee, or anyone else interested/ with something to say............ I reinvented my plans due to a wonderful happenstance.. So I found 7 felled trees by a beaver who left wood chips I gathered and carried off to home base. I took card board box #1 and shredded egg cartons cardboaard and beaver chips mixed together with chunks of the log cultured with Turkey Tail mycellium. Covered all that with more beaver chips and put the box in a tote that collects the rain water up to a certain point that doesn't submerge the box but allows moisture to soak up and me to be able to teter toater the boxes so as to be able to moisten the whole box. Box #2 I took and layereed beaver chips then place cardboard layers that I had peeled open to expose the corragated innereds. I placed both the mycellium log chunks and fruiting turkey tail mushrooms in between each of the splits then layered again with beaver chips. This box was placed in the same tote explained before in shade that lasts all day except the last hours of when the sun is so far west it peaks around the house.
I dont know what I am doing..... if there is to much water, or any other number of conditions that could e alterd to improve the chances of the mycellium spreading to the rest of the "food" I provided.
What's up?
by the way Kay Bee,
Im north of you just east of vancouver WA

Thanks so much Kay Bee, I think the rounds is a great idea! I also appreciate you mentioning waiting to take the mycelium out of the forst once they have had a chance to do their thang. Woo Hoo !!!Does it matter if the log I try and innoculate is fresh cut should I wait?

Queen anns lace seed!!! It seemed there were alot of nay sayers about practicing fertility awareness but that in conjunction with taking queen anns seed when I get nervous has worked for me for the past 2 years. If I have unprotected sex 6 days before I obvulate, during ovulation, or a few days after, or am just nervous cause my periods gone wack, I'll take a pinch of the seeds in my mouth a few hours after my "experience" and chew until I get what I perceive is a table spoon and a half of medicine juice adding more seeds to get there If I need it. I'll take it three times a day for two to six days depending on my worries. I have been super sloppy and I still havent gotten pregnant ince I got pregnnt using condoms and had to induce an herbal abortion. A great read is "fertility awareness" I believe you can find it on Zine library.
I know that there are people who take queen anns daily kind of like "the pill" Anywho, I have only written a little about thi and so I recommend learning more about all this if you have specific questions I can do my best.

Also I have heard neem is something persons with a penis can take as a daily tonic to deaden their sperms ability to travel. I am not super familiar but if one could find good information its worth looking into.
