Leslie, we have something to apologize for if any of us have left you with a 
'can't do it' or 'you must be like me' message.

The gist of the messages are not intended to be that, rather don't think that 
by pontificating about it that you can achieve it.  It isn't, as we say here 
in the moutnains, how you hold your mouth.  It isn't about choosing exactly 
the right location at the right time with the right gun and the right tools etc. 
 In fact, anyone chime in here to disagree with me, there ARE no right time 
or right locations or right circumtances.  All times, places, and cirumstances 
are the best and the worst for homesteading.

You CAN do it.  Ordianry mortals do it all the time and have for all of the 
history of humankind.  But having said that, you can't follow a paradigm that 
doesn't exist ... unless, of course, you are beaking new ground altogether and 
then .... weeellll, you know,   we all want to see the plan ..."
