Building for The Future

As kind of an aside, if you're growing/raising your own food, would it be legal to trade food items between two private parties without a license or any other government meddling?

If it is, we might work something out with seafood (crab, shrimp, clams, etc) in exchange for dairy and grains. Seeing as I have a pretty good idea what rivers you'll be close to.

Currently it is, but I seem to remember some legislation that was coming down the pike. Something about criminalizing/regulating bake sales as unlicensed bakeries or some such. Though I don't think that would apply here.

A German anvil

I wish. New German ones are about $6-$7/lb and I would like a 125 pounder....put some miles on the vehicles looking at used ones and will continue to do so.

Chris, what is your estimated time frame to complete this overall project?

We'll all have to talk about the horse thing once you are located out there Chris. Believe me, it's looking like a license to print money.

I need to start working on my mechanical skills. Though it might be hard to get the wife to move out of Indiana.

Idaho, Indiana, there's a difference? [/coastal idiot]

Great T-shirt I saw once: "University of Iowa, Idaho City, Ohio"

A New Cliff Carroll Anvil from Centaur Forge can be had for $450.

Only reason I said German anvil was for HTRN's sigline.

Ayup, and we'll be on a big lake surrounded by navigable rivers; including 3 that are navigable to the ocean, and two navigable into Canada.

I'm frightened to ask: are you mentioning the navigable river into Canada because you feel you may eventually shop there, flee to there, or take it over?



I'm imagining Chris standing atop the crow's nest of the SS Guncounter screaming, "I hereby declare thee the 51st State of Altacanukia!" while I tell a shocked mountie, "We have ways of making you say the letter "O" pal."

Isn't Idaho part of the fictional Tri-States area in the Ashes series?
