RE: And inverter system comparison of AC power generation, for homestead use.
That is one of them. One on herbal preparations, and one on a hidden garden soon too.

oh that's right, I remember the one where you act like you know herbs. What does hidden garden mean? Hidden where?
In plain sight. There are food items that produce heavily, that are not recognized as food. Sunchokes, seaberries, lambsquarters, and stinging nettle come to mind....
You can have a LOT of good food, hidden in plain sight, that no one else even sees!
:)>Oh I get it. That's a pretty smart idea, who told you about it?
I've never heard of Sunchokes and seaberries, maybe you should write a book.
Must have been a little birdie, LOL. It is a common discussion in prepping, but they never go far enough. I want enough to feed me for months just laying around.
There is a lot of corp land around the lake. It is public land, and accessible; and a great place to raise a lot of spare food....
The seaberries (Sea Buckthorne) are hearty in the cold, and have 100 times the levels of vitamin c that an orange has. Plan to plant sunflowers for eats and oil; I may put those on an island, because someone might recognize them.
:)>An island? What island? Yeah it would be pretty hard not to recognize a sunflower.
Keystone lake is Large lake, one island is 60 acres by itself (a trail park for motorcycles), LOL! Lots of small ones by themselves....
:)>wow. Is that man made?
Yes, with a BIG damn dam, LOL! It is a V shaped lake, north leg is about 70 miles long, south leg is 55 miles long. Big enough that it has it's own map, and a major hydroelectric generator station. They lost three or four towns to the lake, when they built it. The old highway became two extra boat loading ramps, on opposite sides of the lake.
The dam is about 25 miles east by boat from the new property. Made in the early 1060s, and VERY full with all this rain (bump those dimensions by 25%). A lot of drinking water, LOL.
