Thoughts of Spring
Our thoughts and attention are directed towards spring, even though there is over a foot of snow on the ground, and temperatures near zero degrees Fahrenheit. It’s time to pull out our old favorite, the Square Foot Gardening book, and make plans for feeding our family in the upcoming year. The compost has been cooking for over a year, and I have a couple of big bags of vermiculite to mix in.
Professionally, I'm an IT Engineer (Executive Level) and Electronics Tech. Philosophically, I'm a Green Conservative, and probably would have been a hippie in the 60's if I had been old enough. I live off grid, with Solar (PV), Wind, and veggie oil fueled diesel generator power, and have been teaching and living sustainable technology for over 10 years.
