Sunday

Home

Today we had our friends Phil and Regina; Rusty and his daughter Bailey stop by to see our place. Good south Brewster county visiting, talking about solar panels, good wind turbine locations, and wire sizes. We also walked to the top of our mountain (which we need to do more often) and got to see a good birds-eye view of the homestead.

Some very interesting AllEnergies fans have gotten in touch with us, including a family of blacksmiths who make some durable yurts. Their website is www.mountainwindyurts.com and we are going meet up with them in a few weeks to exchange some ideas. They have a wind turbine propeller eight feet in diameter and they are offering us the fiberglass wind turbine prop, which will give us the opportunity to make an awesome new turbine. We're aiming for a permanent magnet, 3 phase generator with a 30 foot tower and a diversion load.

Tomorrow we'll be busy down at the Ranch lodge, but we'll update again soon.
