Cities are the same everywhere but, dear God, that is gorgeous.

I could picture myself erecting and maintaining some wind turbines for the village. That would keep me busy and satisfy my drive to tinker.

That reminds me, i keep meaning to look into the local statutes about installing a small wind turbine on my roof...
Combined with some battery storage, I'm pretty sure it could supply 75% of my typical lighting/appliances load...

True story, I went to England a few years back at the end of January. My mom asked why would I ever want to go to England in the winter because it's cold there. During my trip it was in the teens here while it was in the high 30s, low 40s in England. The last day of my trip it was sunny and nearly 50. Didn't rain the whole time, but rained the day I left.
I'm not looking forward to spending the money since I'm tight, but I am looking forward to the trip. It should be a pretty good one.

First is a married couple, one kid. He is sole bread winner but makes 6 figure strait commision. They got a $300K+ loan no money down. They just got this place in december. He killed it last year, this year he is making a couple grand a month less than normal. They just accepted an offer to sell their place recently because they are just bleeding out. At what they are getting it is enough to put them back at zero. Another couple, unmarried, no kids. She makes good money, he is a goof and makes just enough to afford is stupid truck payment. She bought the place in her name only, it was just under $300. They are a $400 disaster away from being broke. It's cool to have a nice place, but if you are so over extended you are house poor, what is the point and why are banks allowing this |

I'm somewhere in the middle between isolated on a hill and city boy. I guess I'm "modernized country".

As long as I can hang out by the cement pond with Elle May, I'm good with that...
