[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 515630, member: 84"] Can't do a hive. Nichole is allergic to bees and she helps me in the yard and will be helping me in the garden. And I can't say the idea is appealing. lol This old victorian was totally redone before I bought it. The pipes in question for the kitchen sink are in the crawl space which is super hard to maneuver into, instead of the "basement" part, they have some insulation....it's just a long journey from hot water heater to the sink. During the summer it's the same thing. House is exceptionally well insulated, thankfully. It stays cool on hot days as long as the humidity isn't too high.......in spring I have to throw open windows to warm it up inside. lol Upstairs gets hotter of course as warm air rises. Windows are new. Haven't noticed much for drafts but I do need to put some insulation around the doors thanks to the darn cats trying to get in. I plan to have my eyes open for farmers selling anything, got some great deals last year that way. :) I have a friend I went to nursing school with who has a completely self sufficient farm, she says that is pretty much all she buys in the way of food. Hmmm, I wonder if she'll be having some beans and such on sale this year. I'll have to ask her. [/QUOTE]
