What I’m doing now

My Tips and Inspiration

Healthy Habits

I workout with my wife 5 days a week for 60 to 90 minutes.  My wife (thankfully) makes all of our meals primarily from food we grow or food that we purchase that is as close to the quality of food we grow as possible.

Engineering and Building

We’ve moved out to the middle of nowhere in the US and designed a house that we’re now building.  Our home is designed to be:

  1. Part of the landscape and my wife’s unique garden design.
  2. Disconnected from utilities (solar for electricity, well for water, engineered septic system).
  3. Minimal maintenance.
  4. Allow us to grow as much of our own food as possible.

Here’s our up-to-date story including videos.
