Sandy,

Thanks for asking about the water system, we are planning on putting one in 
too!  I understand what you are saying about the "picture this" mechanism!  
The most wonderful thing to come out of this group (for me) is being able to 
visit a groupmembers homestead and actually see some of it in action.   
Pictures are good, real ife is even better.  Maybe you can find a kind heart 
near you that will allow you to visit.  I hope soon to visit again... when 
they butcher rabbits.  Hands on experience :)

Now I would like to find someone in N GA to teach me the local flora and 
fauna.  Any takers?  Is Mama June still around?

Amy
