Larry, you've nailed it on the head, there is no substitute for garden produce, and I'll bet by virtue of the pictures you post and what you do off work hours has influenced many here and elsewhere to do the same.
I used to live a similar lifestyle, lived all over NJ for 15 years, from Wayne down to Mansasquan, and always like to mention that I lived in Brick & Wall, (townships LOL) and always wanted to return home here to enjoy the land and the life. Lived in Woodbridge in a small cape cod, and another small home both with small back yards, commute to NYC daily, Albany on weekends just to do the same things, wishing I could have that good paying job and come home everyday. I have seen most of PA, and I believe the areas near you if you are in Lehigh, are just something to appreciate. I used to deal with Eastern Exterior Wall Systems/ Duggan & Marcon many years back, visited their facility several times, had an uninsured motorist, in Easton PA, a single mom with 9 suckin puppies smash into the back of my F150, uninsured, I let her go, "merry christmas" (was holiday time) I said, was just a bumper and some hardware.
I think all of that what you do is worth it, its just ideal, I'm fighting to maintain that kind of life, with some land to enjoy, it comes at a cost, taxes and all but even the smallest garden sure can make a person believe they live like a king, you just can't do much better.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
