I was born and raised 20 minutes from Boston, MA. At the age of 17, I was diagnosed with Anxiety. My personal experience with the prescribed medication was NOT POSITIVE. So I decided to find better way. I didn't know it at the time but, that was the BEGINNING for me! I have been “FINDING A BETTER WAY” in all areas in my life ever since. Better ways of how to create a modern homestead affordably, and a better way to provide my family with healthy foods, and so….. much MORE!
At Lumnah Acres we hope our experiences can help guide you to find YOUR BETTER WAY! Please join us in sharing our journey with you, let us be a guide to Modern Homesteading, Self-Sufficiency, and FREEDOM for you!

When we had the horse pull the wood sleigh into the woods for logging, fire wood, or fun, we had the steel freeze on the runners to the ground. we had to GEE and HAW the horses to break the ice so the horses could pull the sleigh forward. When Trucking in the cold and parking for the night, I would go back and forth a short bit to cool the tires so they wouldn't freeze to the earth. I would not set the brakes for parking, but would use a block to clog the wheels. I have had brakes freeze up to and take off dragging tires which would pop leaving me needing new tires on an axle. So do not stop and park like you do in the summer warm air when it is winter in the woods.

I love the gleam in your eye when you had to test drive it before Gina would get in. Love seeing the where's Figaro hoodie again. I need to get myself one for Christmas. I've been putting it off as we are trying to pay off bills and now are getting our real estate ready to sell. We will be moving out to the family homestead where our son is soon. I'm so excited to raise chickens. Pigs, sheep and a few cows. We'll start with chickens and pigs. I'm so glad we live in Virginia tho, not sure I could handle the climate you deal with. Definitely like the greenhouse. We're impressed with your success on that. Pretty sure you sold us on that. Blessings Lumnahs.

Nice machine! Great setup. Hey, I am an aircraft mechanic of 25+ years. Unless otherwise instructed, fastener orientation (bolt orientation) is always from front to back (the head of the bolt in front, the nut on the back) or from top to bottom (the head of the bolt on top, the nut on the bottom). That way IF the nut were to come off due to vibration or some such action, the bolt can only fall on (aircraft are hopefully moving forward at all times ;-) ) or fall in and not the converse, falling out or falling down. Nice ride! Great job setting it up, Al!

Exactly (about radios). As a long-time ham radio operator, I always carry a bag (8-10) of fully-charged FRS radios to my nephew's 500 acre ranch to ensure communications connectivity with all concerned, especially those who do not have communications licenses (not needed for FRS). The ranch is hilly, yet we have good communication across the 500 acres, so I suspect you'll have good range on your OGP (Off Grid Property). If you do go the FRS route, be sure to get the ones with maximum range, as well as a built-in weather radio. Many units also have beacon signals to help in case you get hurt out in the woods and need to be found by the search and rescue teams. Insurance for all occasions.

That new tank looks so cool. Looked like a big job to install though, but you handled it well Al. Looking forward to some exploration at the new property. I might have to get a set for my mule 😆

One was surprised that the bolts didn't seem to have cotter pins to keep the nuts from working loose on the tracks since there backing out can happen but hopefully it's designed not to need them instead. Gina might be a bit more enthused if Al got her to drive it and the Kubota since most of the time he seems intent on having all the fun to himself but with tracks who'd blame him. A tarp thrown over the entire Mule would be best to keep it clean and you'll have to have several feet on the ground before it can go where you want it to since what it couldn't clear with wheels still applies when it comes to obstructions as it is now. Keep it in 4WD since you'll need it especially turning and only due that when moving since the front steering will have trouble with it otherwise since it was for wheeks not the tracks footprint when designed. Looking forward to seeing it at Lumnah 2.0 and perhaps building it a cargo sled on skids might be something it could tow since it will make hauling more materials since the Mule's bed isn't that large.

Is there gonna be a lot of snow, etc., getting thrown back by the tread and getting inside the mule and on whoever is in it? You order doors or some type of shielding to protect you guys from all that or when it's snowing, raining, or if the wing is just blowing hard, to keep the elements out and the warmth in? But it does look like it would be fun!

I’m glad to see you got a trailer. You were lucky it was right to fit the trailer and the door. Please get some tools for the mule. When you’re away from home having fun and a track comes loose or jumps off, you may need more than a 2x4 to get get going again. You mentioned some winter stuff coming so that will finish out the mule to keep y’all warm and dry. You need another wrench for the rear or mount the front on a receiver so you can take it to the rear if needed. I’m glad you got the new shed/barn built to keep a lot of your toys in, I hate to see people just leave their stuff setting outside in the weather when not using it. How far is it from Lumnah #1 to Lumnah #2. Stay safe and have fun.

Just a helpful side note, always torque Suspension and Chassis components in their neutral state. Neutral state is at ride height and empty load with wheels fully on the ground (full weight on tires "tracks in your case"). This is even more important if rubber/poly bushing are part of the joint being tightened, if the rubber/poly is in a bind when loaded it will fail faster than designed too. P.S. jealous of the snow tank. have some fun with it.

How about a cab heater? How about side and back walls,also? You might add some foot steps. Be careful when going over large rocks and logs. it could knock off the tracks. Maybe get a small trailer on tracks for carrying supplies with? Add a winch to the front of the big trailer.

Don't let those track clog up with snow and ice or mud that freezes. Keep the track clear of stuff went to park it for the day. Frozen Mud with mean you machine needs to be warn up and clean and will not give you a ride out of those 500 acres.

I would say you could use plastic side and back curtains and a light bar on the roof if it will clear the garage door. If there is no clearance mount it on the front edge of the roof/windshield.
