I got an old Amish pony team to help expand our market garden. The team knows more about plowing than I ever will. They are voice-activated, solar-powered, reproduce themselves, their exhaust is fertilizer, and they are fully compostable. I have yet to see any electric car beat that.

Our lives are going well in San Anselmo. Our chickens and two dogs happily co-exist. Our want-to-be sustainable garden is slowly coming along, with lots of great fruits and veggies being enjoyed by us and the squirrels.

Our beautiful daughter, Elyse, is now one year old. With smarts and a smile that won’t quit, she keeps us busy! Our 6 month craftsman home renovation became a two year adventure but we are glad to say it is complete. Now we just have to look after five chickens, one dog, one child, ourselves […]
