We are hitting that point in the year when it is still summer but the pending change is in the air. It is still hot out but the mornings and evenings start to be a lot more enjoyable. The breeze seems a bit different and we all know that while it still seems the height of summer this is the reality, as of today…
- Sept. 22 the fall equinox is only 25 days away
- Halloween is only 64 days away
- The TSP Fall Workshop will begin on Nov. 7th only 72 days away
- Thanksgiving will be on Nov. 22 only 87 days away
- And the big holiday of Christmas is now only 120 days away
To put that all in preservative it has been 247 days since last Christmas. And you know how it goes, as we enter fall and all the special things that come with it time seems to speed up and next thing you know it is all over and the depth of winter are here. It is a great time (Fall-Winter) to get things done and they often need doing by spring, or you end up behind for the entire year. Ask me how I know.
As I always say, “TICK TOCK, TICK TOCK – THE CLOCK TICKS FOR US ALL” can you hear it ticking for you?
So this is a great time of year to start lining out plans to get things done during the downtime of winter and get them started in fall so they actually happen. Today I am going to discuss things we are planning for both the business and our homestead heading into my favorite time of the year.

So glad the ducks ? are coming back. I love watching them and watching you interact with the ducks and turkeys.
I live in Maryland next to the Chesapeake Bay. We’ve lived for years with Rockfish (striped bass) fishing restrictions. The charter boat captains were thrilled, now that fishing is great who shows up but a dolphin pod or two. Good eating. So now that fishing competition is fierce, the charter boat captains are offering dolphin ? watching tours. Less work same money. Taking lemons and making lemonade.
Looking forward to future YouTube and Podcasts.
I would love to hear a 30 laws of life podcast.
I’m looking forward to the 30 laws and looking forward to the workshop.

Nice episode. I can’t wait until I get my house to implement my plans, crafted in part due to your shared knowledge!
How much will the Fall Workshop cost? If not yet set, how much has it cost in the past?
It has been and will continue to be 500 with 100 down and balance at the event when you show up. This year I may up the deposit to 150 with 350 due at the event. Simply because the Friday is going to be real expensive for me on food.
Also this year may have a 50 dollar add on for some Swag. I am thinking a Mule Mug or two, a flask and some extra shot glasses or something not sure. People that do that will just tick a box so I know how much to order and bring the extra to the workshop.
