I am just beginning to start seeds. I have been preoccupied with getting the new radiant underfloor heating system built and online. If anyone every tries to get you to do a whole house underfloor retrofit, whack ‘em one and run! It seems to be working great. No more splitting wood unless I want to. The boss really likes having warm feet!

Glad to hear from you! Nice to know you’re thawing out a little! :)

My Uncle Don, who had the very FIRST, ‘Organically Certified Farm’ in Wisconsin, also had a similar set-up, though there was an outside building that held all of the mechanics.

He’s 91 this year and still tinkering. I love that guy! I spent many a happy summer on his farm as unpaid labor; he (and Aunt Alice) are the reason I live the way I do now, after growing up in inner-city Milwaukeestan. :)
