Naomi and I rented a small tiny home/cabin through Air BNB for a little weekend getaway to hit the restart button. We took her polaroid camera as well but I didn't scan any of those in.

The above image depicts the existing PV arrays at the Pine Bluff project site.
The work was carried out on site by OPS in November 2009 and included a complete system upgrade of the old inverter to the new DSP controlled HPC system, with new current transducers installed and a user friendly SCADA package. This SCADA package will allow the operators and administrators of the school to effectively monitor and control the new system with ease and efficiency. The aging battery bank was entirely replaced with 40 x 6V, 875 Ah batteries, and the MPPT solar regulator was integrated into the DSP control to ensure maximum yield of the solar energy.

Well, I lucked out in finding this 3000 watt continuous - 6000 watt surge inverter on clearance at Harbor Freight today. They had it marked down to $224, and I had a 20% off coupon, bringing it down to $ 179.
The 120vac EVSE that came with the 2012 Chevy Volt, had no problem using it.
This photo shows the load on the Inverter with the car charging at 8 amps.
Should be no problem with the 12 amp setting, but the battery bank was not fully charged tonight.
Depending upon the heat generated at 12 amps, at the 120vac outlet of the inverter, I may have to go inside the unit, and solder in a direct connection with a good 10 gauge extension cord pigtail for the EVSE.

I designed and made these temporary stairs, they are inspired by the hórreos - the grain stores in the region, for the Almacen, Riocaliente, Asturias.
A short blog post about the process
SOIL ANALYSiS of Salamander Springs Farm market gardens shows the transformation of the soil over several years of production.
Terms such as CEC (Cation Exchange Capacity), Soil pH, soil organic matter, and the various crop nutrients are discussed.
This slide also includes a little "Tale of Two Soils" written on Salamander Springs Farm highlighting the important of working with nature's processes and not tilling!
The floors of the Kinney family Earthship were all hand poured concrete slabs. Two workers work out the bubbles and air from a recent pour.

Malaysia school in Kalabakan, Tawau using Mistubishi 130W solar modules, as designed and implemented by Optimal Power Solutions for the Sabah schools project.
Exhibition of the Sabah Schools Project that Optimal Power Solutions Malaysia provided the power conversion and design system integration for.
Passive solar house kit- overhangs prevent the summer sun from heating the house, low winter sun helps heat it. Energy efficient design reduces need for bigger systems. Built with SIP, with passive solar modern design.
The batteries were second hand and stored for almost a year so we're giving them a really good charge before connecting them to the household circuit
