"Glad Maine Is Up Here In The Right Hand Upper Corner Of The World" Video!

Found a video on You Tube that says it all without words...simple approach showing what is happening to many parts of the country due to our appetite for energy. To the point of forgetting what life is all about and that the best things in life don't need a gizzillion dollars paid to a foreign country for precious energy. Ever thought about a simpler life in reducing, reusing and getting sane about the out flow of cash you worked so hard to tuck away for security, retirement and a rainy day? Like I said, glad Maine is off the beaten path up here in the right hand upper corner of the nation. The local farmers have a song called "Tater Tater Raisin' Man"..which says looks like I'm going to have my best year yet...that I may just about break even. Contentment with what we have, living within our means, grateful for all we do have. Mainers have what they need...and not a long laundry list of "wants" depriving them of enjoying and living in today..just today. Here is the link to the video ! It's called "Why I'm Moving To Maine.

Thanks Tom. Spending every cent our family made up as fast as it came in was NOT something I witnessed growing up. Does it make us cheap and scrooge like? No..it means living within our means, having money in case of sickness, or to retire on some day...be prepared for whatever comes at you, and be grateful cause it could always be alot worse. Had to be frugal and make a game of it on the family farm to keep farming year after year. Mainers are survivors, and strive to live a simple life. I'll scope out your blog too! Happy Holidays!
