Known unknowns? Why didn't #sauerkraut stick here after the Romans? Why is it that my country (England) seems to lack a popular history about #salting or #pickling #vegetables in food preservation?
Instead there's just a whole lot of salt beef in naval history. Vinegar should have been commonly available from apple trees in most places. While I'd guess most regions of England needed to buy in their salt; and the navy had money.

Started making kindling for the upcoming heating season. Using the splitter to make a season’s worth of kindling is waaay easier than splitting by hand to make kindling as needed. Our tractor is in the pic since the splitter is mounted on the 3-point hitch and is driven by the tractor hydraulics.

Currently I making medium size kindling. I will also make a smaller size. The contractor is just about done replacing our highly flammable wooden deck so I have lots of bone dry wood that will make fine kindling. And since we no longer have horses there is plenty of room in the barn to store the stuff.

Attempt number...? I lost count. Mama stopped sleeping in her shelter somewhere last week. As it turns out, her butthead son had been peeing all over it to mark his territory. 🤡 So now I've cleaned everything, added fresh straw, made a pee-barrier out of garbage bags and then treated everything with pheromone spray. It just reached freezing temperatures here so fingers crossed! These cats sure keep me busy 😝

EDIT: car insurance is now only 1 month behind instead of 3! Let's see what else we can do to improve this situation, fedi!

Atha is bureaucratically and politically disabled from getting a job for a while.
Inamruzui is partly disabled by POTS and sleep issues. Employment is not a simple matter for them to arrange.

Atha was at the food bank yesterday and was given two small shopping bags of canned and dried food for hir and Inamruzui to last a month. Let's raise some funds for the rest of their grocery needs! $300 might be a good start for that.

Let's take another chunk out of Atha's debts! The IRS is being ass, cranking up its non-payment fees. They alone want $860ish. The rest of this part of the request goes to credit cards and car loan and car insurance, with any small change for food.
#MUTUALAID #URGENTMUTUALAID
$373.98/$2500 for debts and bills this week!

Then there's the matter of solar batteries: the #Vulpibus systems struggle to store enough energy to keep running overnight in winter.
We need to get them AT LEAST 2 more (ideally 10 more) batteries at around $250 a pop. So $500 (ideally $2500)
Any small change from that goes to cable crimps and mounting hardware.
They also need battery insulation and heaters!

Then there's the matter of insulating more of the bus itself. Not only is the insulation itself needed, so is something to hold it all in place. A layer of thin plywood would be good. Also not a cheap matter.

The bus grows heavier as more is added to it, so care needs to be taken to choose lightweight but sturdy things to fit.

If you are looking for someone interesting to host in their vehicles on your homestead a while in Colorado, give us a DM.

Hi folks,

We are pleased to inform you that @vulpinelabs 's Vulpibus is now within a few hundred miles of its destination! Another full tank of ultra low sulphur diesel should do the trick, and that will be around $200 in the currency of this realm, along with a buffer of $300 for any extra moving around that might be needed in the coming weeks. They also need monies for food and fending off debts once they arrive, and to get needed batteries and insulation for the winter. Then there's the matter of HRT... and vehicular bureaucracy costs in their new state.

The help we have received along this journey from #Mutualaid is inspiring. #mutualaidsaveslives .

Please help Atha and Inara make it the rest of the way to where they can sort out an income and somewhere more permanent to live! This way they can even start to properly build the commune and labs on wheels we need.

If this world had any idea how important the work of Vulpine Labs is, Atha and Inara would be given anything and everything they need.

In an ideal world, they wouldn't be having to flee from fascists, snobs and Karens because there wouldn't be any in power. But here we are. Please, help if you can.

Youtube video of the hive check today. There is a lot more capped honey in the second deep and it's getting heavy.

Bottom deep is kind of a mess from bulged honey comb so I didn't pull anything out of it this time or previous. It will get fixed up in the spring when I'm not worried about them having enough food for the winter.
