O.K., see Anders delurked and I'll bet he would tell you it wasn't painful 
at all :)  Come out, come out where ever you are and tell us a little about 
what you are doing or hope to do.

Right now we are having VERY unseasonable weather.  The norm is snow for 
Thanksgiving.  We had something that might be identified as snow, if you 
looked REALLY hard, the week before turkey day.  We've had a little rain but 
not enough to talk about.

With the weather what it is, I think I'll just keep trimming up and dividing 
strawberries.  I am over run with strawberries.  They are taking over.  You 
guys in the southeast might be getting overrun by kudzu but I have the kudzu 
of strawberries!  The blooming things have actually climbed up my raised 
beds and I have to keep pulling them out :)

Hello everyone!
My name is Anders Andersson and I have been on this list for a couple of 
years now.
I found it while searching for information on wood gas, there was a lot of 
discussions about that on here some years back. I can’t remember what year 
though.
I have learnt a lot from reading all the things that have been written about 
farming and growing,
And have become really interested in homesteading.
It's also been great fun reading all the stories you have shared.
I never found the courage to post anything before the list sort of died out, 
so I am really glad to se it come to life again.
A short introduction of myself: I am a 26 years old guy who lives way up 
north.
I was born and raised on a farm. My growing experience is limited to 
potatoes.
I drive a 1962 ih b160 which I am going to convert to run on wood gas, this 
is my main project right now.
I have just bought some old ww2 gasifiers that will hopefully do the job.
I am in the process of buying some land where I hope to build a house and 
settle down in the future, (maybe live entirely off grid). But for now, it 
means I will always have a place to collect firewood and hunt.
I hope to read more from the frequent posters and maybe there are some 
wallflowers that can drop a line too?
Warm Regards Anders
