i was in the woods, behind my house, looking for felled tree limbs for firewood and as I walked in, I could hear moving water and then I saw. A fast moving creek. I was beside myself with joy and gratitude because it is not only a water source but; no doubt, there are fish in there so it is also a food source. When and if the time comes when I need it, it is there.
I do not think my kids read my blog and I know they think my need to be prepared for whatever may come is drama. I am doing the very same things my grandparents and great grandparents did. Gather food, preserve it, grow my own, raise my own, be aware of resources and develop skills so i will not need to call on anyone. Is this not what being self sustaining is about?
