Happy birthday, Small Scale Life!  Happy birthday to me!  We made it one more time around the sun, and January 2nd was our collective birthday.  Small Scale Life is two years old, and I am just a little older than that (really).  The purpose of this post is to thank you all for all the love and kind word’s yesterday on my and Small Scale Life’s birthdays.

Please note: I originally posted a much longer post about where this platform is going in 2018, but I am re-writing this post to thank you all for all the well-wishes I received yesterday.  The longer article will be published in a separate post.

Happy Birthday

Happy birthday to me! We have a lot planned here at Small Scale Life for 2018!

On my and Small Scale Life’s birthday, I wanted to thank everyone for being a part of our story and being a part of our Small Scale Life.  I had so many good conversations and well wishes on my birthday!  It was a little overwhelming, and I really am thankful for your comments.  I am totally serious: if I could throw a big party and invite you all, I would!  Maybe I’ll have to think about organizing something like that….

All in all, I had a very busy year at Small Scale Life and in my personal life, but through it all, I think I have gotten a little wiser and a little better at this blogging and podcasting stuff this year.  I know there is a lot to learn and I am constantly improving, and I appreciate new friends who have helped me over the past year.

I really want to thank all the people who were guests on the Small Scale Life Podcast this year including Greg Burns, Jay Dolan, Travis Swanson, Todd Ehrhardt, Micheal Jordan, Michael Bell, and Doneil Freeman.  What a great group of people!  I really do appreciate the support and your time.  If you haven’t listened to those shows, you are missing out.  Go to the Podcast tab and start listening today (or just click the text)!

Just Getting Started

Basic Rain Gutter Grow System Concept – 2018

We will use the lessons learned this year to improve Small Scale Life, the podcast, our urban homestead and ourselves this year.  We have some ambitious goals in 2018.  I am working hard to put a team into place that will allow us to grow and improve this platform.  We will have regular guests and a more regular schedule for posts and content.  More on all that in upcoming posts and podcasts, and the proof will be the quality of our work.  The bottom line is that I think we are going to have a great year!

Thank you for everything in the past two years.  Thank you for the engagement and taking your time to follow us.  We would not be doing this if it wasn’t for you. We are just getting started. 2018 is going to take your breath away, and I can’t wait!

Stay tuned and continue to live simply, grow, explore and be healthy with us in 2018!
