Well I am getting settled in my new state and so far I’m
loving it! I should have done this years
ago; don’t know what I was thinking by waiting so long.
Had a scare last week when it rained and rained – I was
watching the stream by the house and it kept rising and rising. I was really concerned until someone pointed
to this spot where previous high water was recorded and this time around wasn’t
anywhere near that.
Yet this got me to thinking about flash floods. So you can expect an article about that in
the near future.
Living rural means that stores close up shop by 11PM (MacDonald’s)
and most close at 8PM around here. I no
longer have all these various specialty shops and rely heavily on Tractor
Supply and Agway. There is a Wal-Mart
and KMart and even a small JCPenny store front in the area, however any other
chain stores are about an hour and more out.
Recycling is mandatory and although I do have weekly trash
pick-up at this place it is only for garbage, garbage. All paper, plastic, metal and glass must be
recycled and that means making a trip to one of the recycling centers. No “Use and Toss” mentality here that’s for
sure.
Meanwhile, the site I used to post my documents for download
on decided that I had questionable content and removed my account. (This means all the download links here @ my
NMUrbanHomesteader site are invalid.)
After
much searching around I found a new site and am building my new blog and
library there. This is all still “under
construction” however keep an eye out for it.
The site is called
"(formerly NM Urban) Homesteader" @ http://FormerlyNMUrbanHomesteader.weebly.com
The new site has a page for the “Blog”, “Events of Interest”,
“Check these Sites Out!” and “Downloads”.
My first official post at this new site will be about “Selecting
a Bug Out Vehicle”.
Until then Keep On Preppin ;-}
