This is from Pioneer-era America. But I think it translates well to ME since the level of (human) technology is similar:

Neat!

It is amazing how much doing this stuff helps you appreciate what a "real" denizen of Middle Earth (to say nothing of our own ancestors) went through just in daily life.

I've had a "insights from the farm for a Ranger impression" post sitting unfinished on my computer since December. I really need to wrap it up. :)
Persona: Aerlinneth, Dúnedain of Amon Lendel c. TA 3010.

I'm looking forward to the wrap up. I'm amazed at all the stuff that you manage to do.
