Lot'o'water

[GreenLearning]

Wow, I would have to throw rocks enough to dam up that deep hole and put a pond liner in there to catch many thousands of that wonderful water flowing past!

BTW, its REAL easy to make solar ice you should try it; ISAAC ice maker. Some poly mirror, iron pipe and an old chest freezer and you would have lots of ice made from solar heat. See: solarhaven [dot] org/AmmoniaAbsorptionIcemaker.­pdf If nothing else, there is that hand vacuum pump with zeolite for making ice by hand.

This one is my favorite, John! What will our property look like when it rains like that?!

Since our rainy season is 2 months long, that gives me 10 months to shovel it out...nice fine sand for concrete or rammed earth work.

This water contains so much sediment that as it slows in the pond it will settle out and eventually fill in the pond.

Man I'm really digging your off-the-grid home, I read your website and was surprised just how comfortable your living standards are while harvesting your own rain water and energy. Very cool. I was particularly impressed with the swamp cooling, I had never heard of such a thing.

You said that you had to buy bags of ice for cooling food/drinks, did you ever look into the possibility of a small efficient refrigerator?

I reckon its because I commented and rated it?

I'm really curious about youtube's search algorithm, because I was just at my arm-cutter-offer video, and this video was number 2 in the "related videos" section
