The tent is up





Juergen and Philip got the tent up. It's awesome! I think we can fit 80 people in there. And I think that's about how many people will be at our party (between 60 and 80 people). The kids and I cleaned the driveway. We pulled weeds, moved potted plants and swept. We also started cleaning out both garages. Maybe we can finish that job this weekend. There are 3 people looking at our house (God willing more) this weekend. We have seen much more interest. I guess people are now pulling money out of stocks and investing in houses. Heidelberg area is a good place to invest. So we are more hopeful we can sell the house soon. It's all grace! Today is the last day of the fall vacation. Monday all the kids go back to school (including Jessica). It will probably take awhile before Jessica can attend school (the workshop) full time. Until then, I have to drive her back and forth. But she is pretty bored at home. Hopefully she is ready for a life outside of the house. I'm ready for my own few hours alone. Here are photo’s of the tent. I have not found my new camera yet. I still have about 20 boxes to unpack. It’s probably in the last box.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

The Opel Agilia

I think I don't want to spend the money for the VW New Beetle. It's a very cute and safe car, but cost about 17,000Euros new. I can find it for 13,000Euros (this is the most basic model) but that's more then I would want to spend. I don't really drive that much. I'm pretty cheep at heart. I need real value for my money. I keep thinking we really should take advantage of the money Germany is offering to trade old cars in for 2500Euros towards a new car. If I buy a car that's around 10,000 Euros, then the Government is actually going to pay 25% of the cost of that car. That's really a very good deal. Since I know I will need a new car in the near future, I feel I should get a new 10,000 Euro car. The Opel Agilia is around 9,900 Euros. It's got 5 doors, and room for 5. It is pretty safe, and comes with a 6 year warranty. I would not call it my dream car, but I could easily afford it. I'm trying to be wise here. There are other cars in thi
