I have visions of beautifull green and stone fences. I would love to visit Ireland some day. I would love to visit Germany too. It's where I was born and raised.
Nice to have you join us. Being self sufficient is more a frame of mind than actually being able to be completely free of outside dependence. I did my best to do for myself, even if I lived in a city with nothing but a small bacony to grow a few herbs. Sometimes, all I could do was dream of any sort of self suffieciency. For now I am able to actually do a lot of it. But that may change any time.
I will still make as much stuff as I can myself.
