August In Boise

Posted by John Morrison over 11 years ago

Final Design Completed

In the Image Gallery, I have posted the Nine page design proposal.  

Through Geoff's on-line class, I learned and re-confirmed more than forty years of practice and observation.  It really is possible to live a simple and more abundant life, now.

Denise and I look forward to reaping the harvest from a more thoughtful 'home in the valley'.

I have laid-up cover seed and started thinking about how best to manage the goats and plant for spring.  As you can see in the design, with so much 'edge' already in play, much of the design hinges on animal management and plant growth on parallel tracks with mutual goals.

I am looking forward to the helical/spiral pump project, water tank, windmill and solar with flow batteries, as I am a winter inventor in the shop.

Ute Bohnsack : It'd be cool if you could post larger versions of those photos (host elsewhere and integrate URLs into text). They are so professionally produced it's a shame not to be able to read them. What software did you use? Thanks. Ute

John Morrison : Thank you for the comment.

I didn't know if anyone would look, so I haven't made much more effort to share...now I am motivated.

The media was all Google and Google SketchUp 2013 Pro with Layout. The 'free version' would probably be almost as good, but it is a tool I use frequently so I have the Pro with a subscription to SketchUCation.

It's a lot better tool for design than ANYTHING else out there and like Permaculture is 'open-platform' so we all benefit.

Ute Bohnsack : Hi John, thanks for your reply. http://permacultureglobal.org is a fantastic gift to the community but one little problem is that one can not see whether anyone has looked at one's posts unless they take time to comment.
