You are spot on with this post! Not what I expected either, but a nice surprise! :)

I have met a lot of nice people on steemit, and only one troll so far (unlike FB, LOL); and so many are so good, in areas that interest me! I have learned a great deal, and I hope I have helped some others myself with posts where I have information. The blog chain intrigues me and I have met good friends here I will most likely not meet in person. But a friend removed, is still a friend, and can bring joy to our lives!

I just bought some land we will move to, and I find so many like minded people here that it gives me hope for the country itself! With so many good intelligent people, we will be alright. I plan to document the process of homesteading (different, but similar, for every homestead) in the hopes of helping someone else, do their version!
