Fall Is Too Hectic. Pausing the Blogs till this Winter.

By Joel Eldridge

 We have decided to pause the blog over the fall. We are just too covered up with other stuff in order to do justice to the Video Channel, Facebook, and the Blog. Something has to give. I love writing the blog but there is just so much time each day and summer is tough on this old man. So when the weather turns a little and the garden slacks down I will return to writing the blog posts. 

Thank you to those who come for the blogs, videos, and posts.

    Just watched your video on cashless society. I agree whole heartedly with you on that. We all need to keep some silver coins (poor man’s gold) and just barter with one another

The Old Outhouse - May it Rest In Peace

  As we go into the Thanksgiving time of year I am thankful for inside plumbing!   Growing up in Michigan for the first 8 yrs of life scarred me forever. We had inside plumbing. It was a travesty to a mountain child. I remember my first introduction to the outside toilet when I was 3 yrs old. Now we had traveled back down to my grandparents in eastern Kentucky many times. They had outside toilets. But as a toddler and just learning I don’t remember their outside toilets till I was 4 or so. But I was introduced to the outside toilet when I still lived in Michigan. Dad loved to take us camping at a campground called Bald Mountain totally primitive camping no utilities whatsoever. There was a lake with rainbow trout and channel catfish and we spent many a weekend and week at the park. I guess it was the closest thing that he could muster to being home in Kentucky. The campground had no facilities. It had a single water spigot for everyone and pit toilets. Now if you have ever used a p

 College Hill Farm dot com is dead. We killed it...... Long live the supreme leader.... Wait wrong blog..... Anyway welcome to our new blog. Today is August the 17th 2022. We had a blog on the College Hill Farm website for 3 yrs. Don't be surprised if some of those blog entries meander over here. We hope to continue with our weekly content on this media. Blogger is owned by the same folks that own Youtube so it should be easy to work between the two.  I know some folks will say that blogger is dying. It might be but right now the price was right - FREE -We hope to continue with our 'Back when I was a Kid' content and even a little modern content about things here on the homestead that just don't lend themselves well to video.  Also, and I don't know yet, we might be able to post a few videos of content that could not be posted on Youtube.  As of today there isn't a lot going on in the Garden - I am about to harvest a few grapes and make a little wine but I have
