We got some exciting things around the homestead lately. A friend finished putting together our Onan generator. We had it mounted on a trailer so that we can use it in case of a power outage or as a mobile generator. My husband also got a great deal on a water storage tank. A pipe supply company that he does a lot of business with had a damaged 1350 gallon water tank out back that they let him have for about 1/4 of the original price (they had already fixed the damage that it incurred while it was being unloaded). We already have it plumbed into our barn gutter and got 400 gallons the first day!

We also got 2 free damaged hot tubs. The first one my husband is going to fix for us to use. The second one he already found someone to trade for a small solar system to run 2 light bulbs. We are moving up a small building for our bedroom off of our Yurt and this will provide the lighting for the building. Very exciting! Can't wait to get it, I've never really seen a solar system up close and personal. I also will be pretty happy when my husband finishes the building so that I can get just a little privacy from the kiddos.
