Secured straw

Sadie making sure our bales are secure.  We obtained local barley straw, stacked them on pallets and covered them with 6mm poly and then covered with woven tarps.  So far it has withstood some pretty good wind storms.

The new road

We are very fortunate to have Roger Meyer as a neighbor.  He owns some equipment and is helping us prepare the site for building.

Dry creek, "Buffalo Springs"

There is undoubtably water on the property but it is a long way from the top of the hill.  That is why we will be using a catchment system for the time being.

Southern view

As you can see there is not much to block the sun or wind.  Perfection for solar and wind generation.

Northern view

Pretty cool, huh?

Eastern view

Wide open spaces and "Big Sky", what Montana is all about.
