Moonlight hike home.

How does THIS possibly happen to a hydraulic pump?! Time to take it to the shop and see what the pros say.

Moon on the rise.

Errands done. Heading home.

Life Support Systems Priority Number 1: Catching Rainwater. Ep1.01 YouTube video by Off-Grid Jon

I moved back off grid full time in October. Officially launched my YouTube channel today with this first full episode. This is where things started!

It’s a bit chilly on the mountain today. Don’t really wanna, but really kinda gotta make a trek to town. I’m out of dog food, propane, and I need a new bar for my chainsaw. Without heat, plumbing freezes and life’s no fun!

Fresh snow and low temps. What shall we do today??

Last week Dayzee Dozer blew her hydraulic pump 😢
So until I can replace it, I’m back to snowmobile firewood season!
Yes, I’m behind the game, but I didn’t decide to winter here (again) til October. I can spare just enough time every couple weeks to gather enough wood for a few weeks more….

Taking a deep breath, for a fresh start.
