RE: My $5,000 Homestead - Picture Tour on Day 1

LOL, it was a wig, and it startled me a little when I saw it there. There's a big wood chest thing in the kitchen that will be interested to clear off and open, it could fit three dead bodies. And those shacks... Might make a good set for a horror film :)

Thanks for the encouragement. I've been wavering over where I'm going to sleep, cook, and internet to get started. My first thought was a cheap travel trailer for a year or so until I can build a small cabin. Where would my time effort and money be best spent? I don't know yet. I'll clear it out first and see what I'm dealing with and then go from there. I appreciate you sharing your experience and thoughts about that, it helps.

Yes, Sarah has a Facebook group for Arkansas homesteaders. She's a few hours away, but maybe that group will help me connect with others also. Thanks for the suggestion.

Hmmm perhaps a meet and greet and a day of helping hands from others in the area???? Feed them and they will come...

If only I could get Justin Rhodes to stop by on his tour :) I am pretty remote and not close to much population, but I do like that idea and will consider something along those lines. You're super helpful weetree, thanks.

Now days we can no longer go with the lone wolf and we need to develop the community and bring folks together to be the help when we need it, just look at it as meeting your neighborhood. And glad to help where and when I can fella.

Haha! I really hope you don't find anything that creepy! I think the travel trailer would be a great idea even an old broken down van or truck could work for a while. Or a shipping container... or even a yurt or teepee might be cool. How exciting! So many options!

A tent will also work into late October. We've done it. They're right. That trailer will make you violently ill.
