Oddly enough, when I lived in Manchester years ago I had fabulous soil even on the small city lot. I could grow all kinds of stuff with ease there and had a great garden. Soil makes all the difference.

30 acres is alot of land in my opinion to where there's a chance there may be some usable soil to some extent, just making a note of it. I do wildlife photography and can cover a decent amount of terrain in a day's work, never even close to 30 acres, and the amount of habitat varies to an extreme amount (this would def relate to soil differences). This would be based most on my experience with Maine, but also with out West and Florida. 30 acres, there's some usuable soil somewhere. Water source is a big help and type of flora growing. Land that's been previously cleared could be old in that it was once farmed in the past. Clearing portions of woods could indeed bring some healthy soil. Trees are living in them, and have been dying in them. Just something to think about it NPG.

I'm down for meeting up this weekend. Sunday sounds good for me. Good place I know and usually go (not as of lately, bars are a bore at the moment) is Slainte on Preble St. I'll be honest and I don't even stray near the Old Port anymore. Horrible vibes there. I tend to stick to the art district.

I'd be more interested in meeting in a coffee shop during the weekday, late afternoon/early evening, if anything.

I've owned the lot for 10 years and have walked virtually all of it. The soil really is poor & was never farmed - there are rocks and boulders through the whole thing and no stone walls at all. The USGS quadrangle map & booklet for the area actually says that this quadrangle is the rockiest one in New England!

The only thing I have had any luck with is some nut trees and even those have matured very slowly. I do have a nice, but very small vegetable garden because I have imported or manufactured (through composting) all of the topsoil. Yes, the land could be homesteaded (though building is illegal there due to town regulations) but it would be so much effort that there is really not much point. Also it is only 300 - 400 feet above sea level and too close to the ocean for me to feel comfortable with. So at this point I plan to just harvest some nuts and firewood from it but live and homestead somewhere else. A single acre of good land (like the kind I had in Manchester) would be much easier to deal with and productive!

NPG & Gregor

Yes, my parents own two acres of untouched land in Warren (I think it's Rockland county). I am encouraging them to sell it and buy land more inland (Northwest). Who knows if they'll heed.
I would love to go to NH though. I am already connected there. I have a chiro license and have a few friends in Manchester.

I've seen DEER HERDing done here. (amazing they don't jump the fence even tho there's really nothing stopping them ... kinda like us)

[GregorArturo]

There's fractal, Irving, and I here in Portland. I'd most likely be able to attend, only issue is a ride. Irving is the only one of us with a ride, so it would be his call. I am pretty sure he works saturdays though until three.

[unloadedgunn]

It would be great if Irving could get the day off (work till noon maybe). I have set aside the 25th and come hell or high water...and let's face it BOTH are possibilities

I hope to see as many people as possible. To get some help setting up, though not necessary, would be great! I have to leave now, and will be gone for about 4 hours. I"ll check in when I get back home. Please, please, please, get word out to as many folks as you can. Time is ticking away.

Peace out!

[unloadedgunn]

I just had a thought. I have plenty of tent space around here, and for those folks coming a long distance, this might be an option. I know it's chilly at night, but there's no better time to practice life in the wilderness than the present.

I couldn't be more down. The hell with work. I like your attitude and your enthusiasm to get a large group of us together. I've always been theorizing a situation where somehow all of the "awakened" people in the world all buy a huge chunk of land together and set up shop and get to being creative. What is the largest possible chunk of land that could be bought? It could almost be like a new country, perhaps we could even declare our independence from all other countries. We could band together with the Ron Paul revolutionaries as well. Could thousands of people organize such a thing together? haha I love to think about it.

Anyway, I love your idea and I'm there. Could you PM me the town or address or whatever information you would like to give me? Thanks.

Wow. How strange (and great) to be on a Forum where familiar names are mentioned! I live in Saco, about 20 minutes to Portland. I'm still getting a handle on where posts are in the threads.

I'm recovering from a health issue at the moment, hopefully turned the corner, and would very much enjoy sharing thoughts and experiences with you all. If you decide to go ahead with the meet on the 25th please email or PM me.

Thank you!
Mark

PS - You're right, now IS the time to step forward.

[unloadedgunn]

I am glad to see all this interest, folks. I promise you Elizabeth the only deer here are "John Deeres". I am surrounded by farms. I hope to see you sylph, I live about an hour and 10 minutes from the border of CT. I really look forward to doing more than communicate in cyberland.

[sylph16]

Thanks Unloaded...we are there for the next meeting...its imperitive to get things moving ASAP as energy is accelerating and the time is now to meet and plan...please feel free to contact me via email or msn messenger anytime

sylph

[unloadedgunn]

I hope to as many of you as possible on the 25th. Please feel free to PM me for details. Let's get this ball rolling. We need to opt out of this broken system before it sinks and drags us all down. If you are in a sinking ship, you can stay on board hoping to be rescued, or you can swim for it, which is extremely dangerous. But, if you stay with the ship until it goes down, you will most certainly get caught in its undertow. I plan on taking my chances...

As the date gets nearer, it would be great to get a comprehensive list of the folks planning to come.

I felt like sharing this here over the rest of the forum. So as of lately I have been paying attention more and more to chemtrails in the sky. I was very skeptic over the theory, as it seemed entirely ridiculous. It really pushed my limits of believability.

I have noticed that the streams of planes I seem to disperse almost immediately, they never last long, but I have seen the long strands of clouds all around.

Today, I noticed a ridiculous amount of chemtrails everywhere in the sky with a bunch of intersecting lines. They weren't natural by no means. And at the same time I saw a passenger jet in the sky. The stream behind it would only last about 15-20 seconds and that was it. Very very sad, it's all I can think.

Just wondering if anyone else noticed chemtrails in the area, cause I haven't noticed them for about a week.

[1love]

anyone from the boston area?

I've definitely noticed them in Portland as well, Arturo. Surely not natural clouds or typical con-trails. I am very skeptical as well but something is surely happening in the skies that is suspiciously interesting. I find that once one has tumbled far enough down the rabbit hole, chemtrails don't seem quite so far fetched anymore. I just wouldn't recommend the topic as being an ice breaker when trying to discuss these issues with a fresh mind. haha.

I see them fairly regularly here on the Seacoast of NH. I noticed one today.

I know you are interested in Orgone devices, Gregor; have you heard of the "chembuster" orgone devices that are supposed to help clear chemtrails?

[GregorArturo]

I have heard of them NPG, just don't have the money to really pull it off. Copper ain't cheap, or at least for me. Thanks for sharing!

[shred]

Waterboro Maine here...anyone in the southern maine area here ?

I am regretfully not going to be able to make it to unloadedgunn's get together in Vermont. I have a family event that I had forgotten about. Sorry to the Mainer's who were potentially going to count on me for a ride.

[unloadedgunn]

Sorry to hear that, Irving. maybe next time. Have a good time with the family.

[Mr_mike]

i have notice some long lasting "chemtrails" here along the mid coast. longeer than normal

[billpmail]

Hi,
How did the meet-up go?
I just joined the forum. Live in seacoast me/nh.
Anybody out there?

Nice to see some activity on this thread! Yes, the meet-up went well though I was disappointed that many who said they would make it did not. Would anyone be interested in trying for another meet-up again soon?

[GregorArturo]

I'd be down absolutely. I can tell you that there are at least four of us here in Portland who would be interested in a meetup.

Also to let you know, a friend (smart friend of mine whos my only close friend in the area who is at my level with things, just doesn't care for forums) and I are meeting a lady in a couple days from Mass who has a bunch of money who wants to buy some land in Northern Maine and setup a self sustained community for the times to come. However, she wants a couple intellects on board to help her out with the logistics and everything. I will keep you all informed on this meeting and what may come of it.

[Mr_mike]

(An idea we did express at the meeting about is relocating to a temporary area where one of us do have land already. Ideas of Keene, NH and Rockland, Maine were mentioned. Rockland however is smack dab on the coast. I believe it was NewParadigmGuy who said his family owned 2 acres of unused woods there.) this area in rockland would not be a good choice. i work in this area alot and it is heavely populated and it is right in the heart of midcoast maine. i live an hour from there nw direction and even i am looking to go more nw. the TR areas are excelent areas to go . lots of wilderness
