Years 19, 20 and 21
Year 20, a family arrived, with two children- one being a teenage boy. Even though there were still shortages of food, the extra help was needed, so they were accepted as residents. The most assistance was needed with clearing trees for the larger goat pasture. Now that there were some gasoline powered chain saws, it wasn’t as laborious a job as when there were only axes and hand saws. An Izba was built for the family near the goat pasture, which they would work.
Everyone in the new family was very happy, except for the father. He was trying to make skyr in the dairy hut he built, but was unsuccessful.
“I don’t know what I’m doing wrong. This tastes terrible!” Trevertt sat leaning forwards, with his head bowed down, sighing loudly.
“It’s not bad,” his son Garnest consoled, eating a spoonful. “I’m sure you’ll get the hang of it soon.”
The sheep and goats reproduced quickly, so there were enough to slaughter for food. With plenty of clothes available, the tanner and tailor did other work, especially helping with the tool making process. Supplementation with foods bought from the trader prevented food shortages.
At the welcoming party for a new couple, Trevertt’s skyr received praises. That didn’t please him very much, because it was actually Garnest who made the improvements to the recipe.
[No wonder Trevertt couldn’t make skyr- Red Ketchup has two goats as livestock mods! One gives milk, but the one I had gives goats milk. The goat’s milk can’t be used to make anything. Fortunately, swapping the files in Windata didn’t make any problems. So now the milk from my goats can be used to make skyr.
Picture one is few houses and the info box. If it weren’t for buying iron bars and tools from the trader, there would have been another bad tool shortage.
Picture two shows the larger goat pasture and new izba. For the little shelter for the goats, I used a building cover from Red Ketchup’s Training Camp mod.
Picture three shows towards the end of year 21. The father in the Izba,Trevertt only has 3 star happiness, but his working son and wife both have 5 stars.
Picture four I added with an edit to this post, which shows the town at the very beginning of year 20, which starts in the spring, so basically it is the end of 19.]
