Glad to have you here Arky! Your already super successful on steemit, amazing reputation score!! I love you and am with you in the dream of an offgrid homestead. My plot is located in southeast Missouri and I'm staying with family over winter also, 5 hours from my land. My dog, cat, and myself are so burnt out on city life. I'm starting my plants in hay bales so they can be moved when i go back. I understand the work involved in just clearing a driveway! Arkansas is the most beautiful state I have visited, and I wish you an early spring!!
