A restless and stormy four hour drive we arrived at 8pm on Friday night. The water was raging, but the beavers had not managed to re-dam the creek since our last visit so the bridge was easily passible.
Speaking of peace on the mountain, there was no sign of the bears that ravaged our trash cans (see previous webcam post). One of the trashcans, which probably weighed 75lbs full, had been dragged some 50 yards down the mountain before the bear got it open. Silly critters.
As always upon arrival, we revel for sometime in the wireless shower of dsl wonder. Farm it may be, but we're nerds at the core. Dinner, a sit upon the porch amidst the dense green forest, a little Bob Dylan, and the best sleep you can buy east of the MIssissippi. Mindy's preparing french press now and I've set up the video cam; time lapse sunrise (while surfing) at Dog Days Place. Click the image for the time-lapse:

Have you ever had a dream?
Have you ever wished that you could stop what you are doing, completely change your life, and maybe even change the world (or at least your small portion of it)?
Since late 2007 we have been working towards building our dream one nail, one log and one seed at a time. We have put all of our time, money and effort into the idea that we can indeed change our lives, learn how to make a living in an environmentally conscious and sustainable way, and then teach others what we have learned.
We are now at the point where the house is livable (flushing is NOT over-rated, I assure you from personal experience), and we can truly begin the journey we started that cold and rainy November day when Oscar won the farm at auction.
The next steps are to bring the open, fallow land back to a healthy and productive state, to plant permaculture crops that will grow well within the local ecology that do not require us to damage the riparian and forest ecosystems, to feed ourselves and our neighbors healthy organic foods that nurture our bodies and foster community, and to once and for all, educate people that it is possible to live in such a way that does not just take, but gives back to all things around us.
But we cannot do it without your help. In order to really do this, we have to leave our current life and employment in Information Technology behind, and begin this new one. Please consider donating to our endeavor, to see if it is possible to follow your dreams, change your life and change the world around you. We will use these funds to purchase the tools, plants, seeds, local support professionals and equipment necessary to make the dream come true, and we will keep you informed about our trials and tribulations through this site, so you will know exactly where your money is going, and the progress that we are making. Good or bad, happy or sad, you will be a part of something, and you will know that you made a difference not just in our lives, but in the community around us as well.

Well, I came upon a child of God
He was walking along the road
And I asked him, Tell me, where are you going?
This he told me
Said, I'm going down to Yasgur's Farm,
Gonna join in a rock and roll band.
Got to get back to the land and set my soul free.
We are stardust, we are golden,
We are billion year old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
Well, then can I roam beside you?
I have come to lose the smog,
And I feel myself a cog in somethin' turning.
And maybe it's the time of year,
Yes and maybe it's the time of man.
And I don't know who I am,
But life is for learning.
We are stardust, we are golden,
We are billion year old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
We are stardust, we are golden,
We are billion year old carbon,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
By the time we got to Woodstock,
We were half a million strong
And everywhere was a song and a celebration.
And I dreamed I saw the bomber death planes
Riding shotgun in the sky,
Turning into butterflies
Above our nation.
We are stardust, we are golden,
We are caught in the devils bargain,
And we got to get ourselves back to the garden.
