Room for My Wife at the Off Grid Log Cabin
Переглядів 2,268,466
4 роки томуI'm adding a small room to the back of my log cabin and I need to get it, and a few other projects, done in the next 5 weeks before my wife joins me off grid. As soon as the shell of the addition is finished, I'll cut a door into from the kitchen of the main cabin, insulate it and fabricate storage areas and a small toilet area.

I’ve watched lots of your videos and I’m understanding the term self reliant now. We see what it means for you, but for myself I’m 76, a widow of 2 years. I live alone with my little dog. I find peace and joy in the simple everyday things around me. I’m going to remain self reliant as long as I can.

I have been watching your videos since you started to build your cabin. I just love it. I was born on a farm off the grid in Brazil. I lived in California from 1960 until 2007. Now I live in Maine and again in a farm, but with all the good things...I mean electricity, ruining water etc....cable TV and Internet. But I still admired us living off the grid. Your wife is very lucky to have you. I am 85 years bow, Now I love to see people like to follow their dreams. Stay healthy and happy. You are doing a fantastic jpg. We also had a sauna. My father was from Lithuania and my Mother from Russia. Liuba

What I love about his work is that he doesn't as far as we can see spend half his day walking back and forth for things he uses. I had a small plastering crew years ago and there was always a couple of guys that would get out of the truck and walk to were the work was only then to walk back to their trucks for tools they needed. I made it a point to go over everything we would do the next day so they would know what tools they would need when getting to work. Never failed someone would forget even the basic of tools. Everyone of them knew which tools to take to their trucks at the end of the day just not what to take to the job.

I said this on one of his earlier videos. It's the only 'show' I can sit here and watch, even though it's just work or cooking noises and I'm completely mesmerized and blown away. When I think of any kind of utopia or 'heaven on earth' I think of cabin living out in the wilderness. I hope he does some smoked fish and meats come spring or summer!

I used to think that self reliance meant off grid living and a home grown organic lifestyle. But now I think it’s more about being self reliant for your own happiness. Not being reliant on other people for personal happiness is a huge advantage. The spreading of positivity is inevitable. This is something modern narcissism cannot achieve. For they are reliant on other people. For everything.

Your place is starting to resemble my great grandfathers house. It started as a cabin and as the family grew so did the additions to the home. When I was a little kid the original one room cabin was the kitchen, still had a four eye wood cook stove next to a propane one. Most all the lumber was cut from his land and run through a ancient saw mill that you could still see parts of in the barn. Back then the blade was as tall as I was.Going to his farm was always like stepping back in time. It always felt like a good place to be.

Your dog sûre gets all the exercise see needs! I should count how many times you throw that dummy for her in a single video. She is one happy pup! And so beautiful and affectionate!
