as briefly mentioned earlier in 3 days at pR, so much more covers...
1. baby steps on the yanmar mini-excavator...
2. lopping off a thin part of my forefinger in a mis-aligned lemon cutting exercise and disinfecting and coagulating the wound with a wonderful local herb...
3. gathering much valuable cow urine from the beautiful cows at pR...
and the beauty of them all (which is a work in progress) - the water flow system design - the virtuous water cycle of pR.
1. water gets pumped by the windmill into the holding tanks.
2. the overflow will be spread out across the vegetable growing areas. the water will flow under the vegetable beds rather than over them.
3. the excess from this will recharge the swales, which will recharge the ground water.
4. through all this water flowing, there will be minimum evaporation-loss because of massive mulch cover.

This is one 'Fantasy meets Reality' situation that must've hurt like hell :(
I know you are dirtying (well in this case, bleeding them as well!) your hands and all that, but do take care.
I must admit, though, it does seem much more exciting than what I am doing ;)
We are all following your journey closely, so keep posting!!
I really admire the path you have chosen. It really inspires me.
Please take care. God Bless You.
Sriram Bhaiyya,
So happy to see that you seem to have found your groove. Take care (and please be careful cutting any more lemons :-)

@ss,B1, manish - just worth getting cuts and nicks to be able to squeeze the herb juice and see its magic in action :-)
other than one more major cut, reporting that my techniques are vastly improving in the interests of limb conservation.
@masiha - with such a blog name (real name??), you are likely to inspire others in due course.
@WR - thanks sachin.
Hi Bhaiya,
Masiha is my blog. Sangeeta
Take care,
God Bless You,
Love,

I think I might visit some day soon, just to drive that thang. It looks awesome.
@choultry - pR is fortunately not disneyland where such rides could be had for 100 bucks ;-)
if you agree to stay around for a couple of months, you could perhaps get to touch the machine...
