Our 6th Season began on a sunny day early in July.

We had new umbrellas attached to our carts, and we were hauling basically everything we wanted to take for another season outdoors.

When it became obvious we couldn’t possibly expect to push the weight of our belongings in the draining heat & humidity, and among the irritating flies & mosquitoes, we had to consider other options.

JC contacted his friend Tim, who also enjoys the simple life outdoors, and pretty soon we had a support driver.

No longer did we have to carry the burden of our stuff while we walked.

But, adding a vehicle changed almost everything, including the added expenses we otherwise would not incur.

JC & I recognized it was time for us to do something we had many times discussed, but had never actually done. We needed to carry a small amount of possessions, but not on our backs.

Hence, a seed spreader,

outfitted with minimal gear, including a nifty solar panel.
