Spent some time reflecting in the woods today, while it wasn't raining. Was thinking, man, I could just live out here. And I saw lots of rocks in the creek that I could incorporate into the building structure. It won't be very big, it doesn't need to be. It is just a start, a place for me to live by myself. So I have dug out the old plans and am up to me arse in schematics. If I just didn't have to look for employment and write these darn books I would have a little time on my hands to actually start construction.
I don't care how the weather is, I will work on the son of a gun in inclement conditions. I think I can gain an advantage over time by being HAM, for one, and stubborn as a mule when it comes to resolve.
But I do know that the process will be a long one, simply because of limitations in funds. And manual labor will be difficult to come by. So I might be doing most of the work on my own. Which I am fine with. And the exact start date on building is still probably a while off, simply to make sure that when it is off and running, it is well planned and when hitches happen, which they will, I will be in a position continue with work.
Here is an article from the NY Times that kind of inspired all of this.
