The HiTechRedneck is: An adventuring Renaissance redneck. An amateurish shutterbug. An anti-technology technologist. A rabid scooterist. A survival skills nut. A self-sustainability advocate. A documentarian (technical communicator, to be technical). An angry Libertarian lesbian. A math-less engineer. A college dj. A master naturalist. A scooter-philosophizing, wrench-turning resident of the Missouri boonies. A Ceobhránach. An Adams. And a life partner.

Scooters: more butch than you’d think.

HiTechRedneck shares her home with six cats, six dogs, an ornery mare, an assortment of rag-tag chickens, and a better half who alternately encourages Misty’s crazy ideas or plants a very firm foot in her backside.

There are two rote responses that HT has for almost anyone: ”Get out and RIDE!” and ”Dude, read a book. No, seriously, read a book.”
