About me

Gender Male
Occupation semi-retired
Location In the hills
Introduction I jokingly say that I am a Luddite with an internet addiction.. I am an independent designer and remodeling contractor, writer, explorer of ideas, places, and cultures. I a lover of nature, reason, and craftsmanship no matter the form. Update: I am just a guy who left a successful business in the city to go to the mountains, to live the simple life in a home I am building for myself. I am experimenting with various aspects of simplicity, off grid power, efficiency, frugality, living with the seasons, gardening, and freeing up the time I used to spend working for others so that I can pursue various passions including the above, but also reading, writing, and the general exploration of ideas via critical examination, aka Philosophy. This blog chronicles my adventures in traveling, as well as my current adventures in living a truly simple, comfortable, peaceful, and enjoyable life. If you like it tell me.. if you have ideas for me to try tell me.. As with all aspects of life, this blog is ever adapting to the environment, so come along on the adventure.

What reason do you have to believe the earth is flat?

They should rename this section to "profoundly stupid and often nonsensical questions and statements" Not one question worth answering..
