Ordained


As of today I am now Reverend Michael Daniels, High Priest of the Wiccan tradition and able to perform handfastings, wiccanings and such. Once in Nevada I will have to apply to the state as each state has its own requirements. Basically you just need to prove you've been ordained by a sanctioned church which I have. So anyone desiring these services can contact me michaeltimestwo@yahoo.com .

Bright Blessings to you all.

New time line




Well due to circumstances beyond our control we will be moving our move date to around mid or late July. The camper is done; we just need to go pick up our solar panels. Personally i would like to use a wind turbine but for the time being we will settle for only solar. I have a couple of design plans for a turbine in mind and with the winds in the valley around 15 mph i think it will be a good investment. We plan on stocking our supplies for a couple of months and are nearly done with that. Perishable items will be all we need to get from town for a while.
Upon arriving i will need to build a temporary water harvester, I already have the plans and will be purchasing some of the materials when we arrive.
As far as finance goes we should be fine for the first 18months and will need in that time to find a way to turn a small profit to carry us through and into the future. All building techniques will be using methods that recycle and are free or mostly free. permits and such should be the biggest cost at the outset.
As far as birds go we hope to have some chickens to begin with and then by next spring be ready for the ostriches.
Preparing for this journey has been a long one and we have made lots of plans and experimented with different things. We have been working toward this move for two years and we believe we are ready.
