Make Your Own Faraway Tree



Have you read Enid Blyton's The Enchanted Wood? I haven't, but that's about to change now that I've seen this homemade Faraway Tree from ikat bag. Despite the fact that it's just made of cardboard, it's so detailed - there's the Slippery Slip, a slide that goes from the top of the tree to the bottom and a laundry basket rigged to be cranked to the top of the tree. Lier shows you how she made the pieces so you can make one for your kiddos. The construction is easy enough that you could use it for all kinds of fun literary interpretations. Let us know if you do!

I think if you need money from customers to maintain the power grid, it should be a specific charge for that, and be levied against ALL customers. And the commission should look into the actual cost of grid maintenance before setting the rate.

Georgia Power has no problem slapping that base charge on their bill just to hang a meter on your house. If your solar panels return any energy back to the grid anytime you should be getting the break even bonus from the power company.
