The best of both worlds, back to basics: recapture the best of the old world craftsmanship with todays most sophisticated
technogy for self-sufficient living. I have been for years building a fully self- contain automated home off the grid with
renewable energy savings systems. Making a living with a home based business, with traditional skills and old aged arts. The
practice of unconventional methods to save money, time, the enivironment and save more natural resources! Promoting
thrift as a viable alternative lifestyle. Using traditional home remedies, time- tested methods for staying well- the natural
way. Using common sense to solving everyday problems. In todays world you can't afford to be unprepared. If you want
the security of being able to live from your own personal resoures year by year regardless of the external conditions. Give
your family a measure of security in an uncertain world. Don't limit your resources or your abilities, never stop learning,
the more skills the better........

Historical Re -enactor
"Let me live where I can be myself. Practice my peoples customs, our religion, our way of life. The Iroquois people are
most truly themselves, being spiritually refreshed. Retain thier sovereignty, thier independence, govern themselves and preserve
thier own sense of worth. Preserved thier attachment to native values, taking from outsiders what is of benefit to them."

Hobbies I enjoy the most which add to the wallet from time to time are handcrafting leather cafts, wood toys
and furniture. The family garden helps out from time to time but is really work..... Remember if your going to do anything,
try make money doing it. Also Barter is not a bad word either.

Credo of the American Indian Movement (AIM)
"Let me be a free man, free to travel, free to stop, free to work, free to trade where I choose, free to choose my own
teachers, free to follow the religion of my fathers, free to talk, think and act for myself and I will obey every law or submit
to the penalty.
Chief Joseph of the Nezperce'

Iroquois Philosophy
Embraced all of nature, no man owns the land it belongs to the great spirit and his children.
Those who use the land must keep it clean and beautiful for those who will come after. No man owns the woods or the forest,
the waters and the rivers, the soils or the earth. It belongs to all. Wild plants, trees, flowers, all belong to the great
spirit and man must take care of them for him. No man owns the animals, the fish in the waters, and he must take only what
is needed. All who are old and sick or helpless have the right of protection of the tribe. All children regardless of birth,
have a place in the tribe.
"Connecting with our native past for a better future."
