    Coffee anyone ?

    I can say I have lived in every climate that is on the blue marble. With that said, limited exposure in the extreme temperatures to any climate is the key. There is very few happy medium places in this country and they are crowded, so suck it up buttercups cause I suggest picking a disaster you...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    I say put them right up against in places like Martha Stewart's Garden or Malibu, CA. Hell, stack a few right next to the Statue of Liberty.. America right? :lol:

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Solar panels will outlast a wind turbine up to twice its life span. There is no winners in this energy game, kilowatts are kilowatts, just an exchange of materials as all forms produce a byproduct that needs to be disposed of. I would say of all of them, the cleanest one in my opinion is hydro.

    Worked two weeks and it was enough to be disgusting.

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Oh I do know that, not to mention life span of a wind turbine versus hydro power. Little secret, there is generators in each of the wind turbines to balance the power coming in, deice the blades, keep hydraulic systems flowing and keep the electronics happy. Funny how no one is protesting...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    We already have a wind farm here that is selling power to Washington state, locals get none of it. They plan on extending that wind farm as there isn't enough for Washington state. They put in new transmission lines to Colstrip MT, but after that it was existing infrastructure to do as such...

    Nope nothing here to see, just cloudy with mild winds in the weather, nice day. "Oh BTW" I wouldn't drive anywhere or do anything today...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    That's odd, we get about 13 inches of rain a year, there is 640 acres in a square mile, they are proposing a AI data center in Broadview, MT which is 175 miles away from here. The said center will cover 5k acres and I'm sure around quarter of a million gallons of water to several million gallons...

    That is what all I posted is about. I'm amazed they even got BLM land to be able to graze on. Over here I can't lease the BLM property attached to mine and there is two parcels attached to me plus many more that I will never be allowed. They granted rights to whoever was around back in the day...

    Coffee anyone ?

    We are having "Oh BTW" weather as I would call it. Forecast says one thing such as partly cloudy highs of this temperature, then on the same day it goes to "Oh BTW" we forgot to mention winds over 40 mph with snow showers too, hope you planned your day for that. It is flipping so fast, that it...

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    No matter what direction I go or what I do, if they see me doing anything in their sight it will be as such. Good thing they can't see up here, like piranhas waiting to latch onto anything.

    Nope, APR was letting them graze on BLM land to restore bison population and they are saying no you can't do that. Only ones can do that are cattle ranches as in the land is for those who raise to butcher cattle, not let them just roam.

    Denied it for cattle only.

    The journey into the abyss of no return

    Like I said, it's going to be a fight to put bison out here when I get them. No one knows they are coming yet that lives out here... https://mfbf.org/ArticleFile/file/29bb3b55-e0e8-4df9-b65c-53a3e402178d/American%20Prairie%20Proposed%20Decision%20January%2016%202026.pdf...

    Coffee anyone ?

    Only 5°F this morning, the wind has finally died down, but will be back Tuesday. Usually winds come in March/April then October/November and that's it. Was supposed to have my truck wrapped in decals by now after trying two companies in town over the past year, nope. Guess my money isn't good...

    Be humble enough to remember you are replaceable. But confident in the fact it would be a downgrade.

    About that… I think you might be right. Since I don’t wear any and they don’t, I think I’m attracting them. Straight razor dry skin, let’s go.
