No one has taken the threads over. A fellow called Kartographer has started a survivor (Prepper) thread which has taken on a life of it's own. I wonder if he is aware of Granny's threads... there is much on them that he could use if he had a notion too. I'm pinging him to this one just as an after thought!
We ended up in Northern MN btw...
Somehow I missed the news of Grannies passing. What a loss.
I enjoyed her threads as well.
For me, the doom and gloom that seems to surround the prepper groups is depressing and kind of panic-inducing, where as the lifestyle of homesteading is a gratifying peaceful kind of thing. Just a gradual change in the way we live, a slow removal from what was a "supposed to" life, to a "want to" life. :)
And hey, CottonBall, I should have put you on my ping!
