We visited Seth and Andrew's friend over the weekend.
He was setting up solar panels while we were there. He showed me the 'control room' but all of this is very new to me, so I listened but had very little to say about it.
Seeing his place was inspiring though. I don't know what initially set me off in this direction, but the homestead has dominated my future goals for the past six years or so. No, I remember, it was when I became aware of intentional communities way back in the day and decided I was going to join a commune... haha.
With our land now cleared, I'm in a hurry to get things set up and move out there. We got the permit for the septic system. They are surveying tomorrow or Thursday. I also got another quote on the well, and the difference is $1100 from the estimate the other company gave us. I had to spend the day looking at the detail and trying to make any sense of it.
I'm hoping it's all done by April.
After this stuff with the property is handled... things will be much easier I think. I'm going to get to work on a garden, so I'll probably be just as busy but at least it won't be calling and hassling with people and price quotes and all that stuff. It's amazing just how much time that consumes. I'm really really glad to see this thing moving forward though.
