Hope to see you at the Arlington Expo Friday and Saturday

Thursday, July 26th, 2012

I will be at the Self Reliance Expo in Arlington, Texas, at the Arlington Convention Center. I have been very busy getting ready to go. When you’re a homesteader, it’s really hard to go away from home for a few days.

There’s lots going on right now and we’re also trying to get ready for our homesteading seminar here at the home place in August. (You ARE coming, aren’t you?) This one is about canning and I’ll be sharing plenty of secrets with folks.

See you in Texas! Please stop by the BHM booth and say hi! I’ll have my books if you want to pick up one or two and will happily sign any you already have.

    Dear Jackie-
    I am VERY jealous that you got to visit Texas (even in the summer heat!). I used to live just a few miles from Arlington for years in the West Fort Worth area (I was born in the very hospital I worked at for 18 years). But I’m more upset that I will miss yet another self-reliance expo. Would you be heading to the great North West anytime soon? If you come to North West Montana, you can stay at my house and I’ll feed you and you can meet all my friends and you can put on your own self-reliance expo from my front porch! October is wide open…..what do you say?

    Just kidding……but if you ever find yourself up this way for any reason, expo or not, I’d be honored if you would consider staying with our family. We have many folks up here who are like minded when it comes to self-reliance and we do need a good self-reliance expo. So if you need a front man, um, woman, just let me know. I’d be happy to oblige.

    Elizabeth

    Elizabeth,

    Thanks for the wonderful offer. I think an expo in Montana would be great. But I go where my boss tells me to. So far that has missed Montana, but who knows what the future may bring? I can’t do too many expos/trips, though, because I’m a homesteader and wife first off and speaker/traveler second. I never want to be too busy to homestead or be a wife. That’s tops for me.

    Jackie

    If you come to west central Illinois you can stay at our house. You can see how far I have to go yet.
