I just found the website and it looks like a good one. My wife and I live on 10 acres in North Dakota about 50 miles north of Minot. Due to the fact that we're 35 miles from the nearest town of any size we try to be as independent as possible and we've learned much over the past few years. I hope to learn much more from all of you and hope I can contribute now and then as well as make some new friends.
