Beautiful pictures of the Bonneville Salt Flats. I remember as a kid when they were testing out there to break the land speed record. I have never been, but at least now I had the opportunity to see it through your lens and eyes. Thanks!

Glad we could purvey that for you. Welcome to the Homestead.

So it has been a while since an update. We haven't enclosed the greenhouse because the Air Cooler won't cover the 750 feet. I got a 950sf Evap cooler coming, hopefully that will work.

Looky what we've been up to.

Just looked up the unit on the web, had never heard of this one before. You will have to give us a review when you have used it enough to form an opinion. Thanks!

Hey guys! The place is shaping up so nicely, y'all are kicking some butt there! ....

..... That press is fantastic! ... results speak for themselves,.... Speaking of which, I have a wee favor to ask, something I'm keen on seeing concerning that HG Si stuff,.... I'd like to see a little solubility test.. do you have a TDS or EC meter? Make up a qt of Di/RO water, or even you local water if it isn't hard,... get the base line ppm reading, then add 1T or so of the HG, let it sit a day, and retest,.... I'll go look at the test thread now, I want to see what it looks like,...

Hi Waira
It's a work in progress

The veggie garden is up and running. We transplanted corn today and will put yellow squash in the ground in the morning

Peppers

Zucchini and marigolds

I need to find time to weed!

Corn was transplanted this morning

The Rosemary has grown a lot in a month

Citronella

Lavender

Last year I got a volunteer Mullein plant in with a lily. I wasn't completely sure it was Mullein, since they don't flower in their first year.
We moved it with us from California and I was really surprised it came up this year.
