Thank you @goldendawne.

I completely agree with your statement:

I have found homesteaders are the most supportive and giving of knowledge of any community out there.

It was strange at first because I think society has made us less open and trusting to that knock on the door. In the olden days it was pretty common to open your door and offer a meal to strangers. It was just done and nothing special. People used to have so much less to give as well.
